KILLIFISH HOBBY NEWS : New Photos of Congo Nothos Online

Posted by Tom Grady on 2008/4/28 11:37:52 (0 reads)

Thanks to the kindness of Holger Hengstler and the skills of Bela Nagy - Killienutz.com is thrilled to host the latest pictures available of Holger's collection in the Congo recently. Initially, I have posted photos of N. malaissei (click here for photo) and N. hassoni (click here for photos) which you can access in the Encyclopedia of Killifish under the List of Nothobranchius Species.

Over the next couple of weeks, Holger will be adding additional pictures from his trip to the Democratic Republic of the Congo as well as the latest photos of N. polli - which he describes "you can not even imagine the beauty of this Notho." Holger will also be writing an article on his travels to the Congo, the problems he encountered collecting the fish and the lack of amenities available in the Congo.

NOTHO NOTES : New Notho Collection Announced

Posted by Tom Grady on 2008/4/18 7:00:00 (0 reads)

Munich, Germany - Holger Hengstler of Munich, Germany has recently returned from a collecting trip into the Democratic Republic of the Congo and has been able to locate four nothos which have never been in the hobby. He collected N. polli, N. malassei, and two populations of N. hassoni. He has posted four pictures of the N. hassoni in bags on the DKG (Germany) website, but it is difficult to get to the photos. You need to register at the site to view them and it is in German. If you do not read German, then I suggest using Babelfish to translate for you to be able to register.
N. hassoni appears to be a beautiful fish similar to some of the red populations of N. kafuensis.
