Chocolate Lyretail Panchax Aphyosemion Australe 3cmOverview: The Chocolate Lyretail Panchax, scientifically known as Aphyosemion Australe, is a captivating freshwater fish, renowned for its vibrant coloration and elegant lyretail. This small-sized species typically reaches about 2-3 inches in length, making it a perfect addition to nano and community aquariums. Their body showcases a rich, chocolate-brown hue, complemented by intricate fin patterns that add a touch of elegance to any aquatic setup.
Origin: Native to the streams and water bodies of West Africa, particularly Gabon, the Congo, and Angola, the Chocolate Lyretail Panchax thrives in a habitat that mimics these tropical environments. They prefer soft, slightly acidic to neutral water, rich in tannins, similar to the shaded, leaf-littered streams of their natural habitat.
Feeding: This species is omnivorous, with a preference for live foods. To ensure optimal health and coloration, their diet should include a variety of foods such as brine shrimp, daphnia, micro worms, and finely chopped blood worms. They will also accept high-quality flake foods and frozen foods as part of their diet.
Tank Mates: Chocolate Lyretail Panchax are peaceful fish that do well in community tanks with other small, non-aggressive species. Ideal tank mates include other small killifish, tetras, rasboras, and dwarf corydoras. Avoid housing them with larger, aggressive fish that may intimidate or harm them.
Aggression: These fish are generally peaceful and are not known to exhibit aggressive behavior towards tank mates. However, males may display mild aggression towards each other during breeding or when establishing territory. Providing ample space and hiding spots can mitigate this behavior.
Experience Level: Suitable for beginners and experienced aquarists alike, the Chocolate Lyretail Panchax is relatively easy to care for, given the aquarium conditions are well-maintained. Their resilience and adaptability make them an excellent choice for those new to keeping killifish.
Water Parameters:
- Temperature: 72-77°F (22-25°C)
- pH: 6.0-7.5
- Hardness: 1-12 dGH
- Water should be soft to moderately hard, slightly acidic to neutral. Regular water changes and a well-maintained aquarium are crucial to their health.

Awesome, but not the best squeakers.
Color: Purple
I bought the orange gecko for my 5-month-old Corgi puppy. He absolutely loves it. He came up with a "game" (sort of) where if I pick it up and start squeaking one of the ends/squeakers really quickly over and over, he'll grab the other end/squeaker and start doing the same thing with me. It was really cute until one of the squeakers stopped working about a week after I bought it... but I guess the toy wasn't too expensive, and he doesn't really seem to mind that one of the squeakers doesn't work anymore. I might buy another next time I do an Amazon order (so I can get the free shipping) and see if it lasts a little longer.

Great Toy For a Great Price
Color: Purple
My Aussie loves toys and plays with them as though she is a small child. She has a basket and will go to the basket and dig through it until she finds what she is looking for. Lately she has been using the bungee gecko as her toy of choice. She gets bored easily and will rip the stuffing out of most toys, the fact that this one has lasted 6 weeks or so is impressive with no rips, holes or missing limbs. Her favorite way to play is to come over to me and nudge me to play tug of war and we have broke many toys this way but so far we can play tug a war several minutes at a time and the gecko is still in one piece. For the price which is considerable less than some of her other toys I have already ordered a couple of replacements for the future. This is a great well built dog toy that has has a lot of give and can be stretched without ripping.

No longer as durable
Color: Purple
I have one of these that has made it through 2 dogs but now the bungee is stretched out. It's been such a well loved toy I recently got another one. They've changed the plush fabric. The old one was indestructible. This new one is much thinner and easily torn. I wish they would go back to the old plush fabric.

Great Toy!
Color: Orange
This has been a great toy for our 11 week old German Shepherd. She absolutely loves it. I can get out all of her toys and lay them out with the exception of her "Lizzy" and she will immediately go to her toy bin and get it herself. Needless to say it is her favorite toy. She has had it a week now and she plays with it a lot, chewing and squeaking. It's a pretty amazing toy to have held up this long already and to date shows no sign of wear or damage. Lizzy just keeps going and going.

This item came with plush missingand thread unraveling on one leg
Color: Blue
I bought this toy because my dog spent a week playing with the same toy from Zanies that belonged to a visiting dog. My dog was very gentle with this toy, which he loved, so we decided to find one for him. The toy that arrived had no Zanies label and missing plush on the bottom where the label should have been, plus other bare spots in the area that showed the white mesh beneath. It also had a long thread at the joint of a rear leg so I knotted it at the joint and clipped it to prevent my dog from pulling at it but it's apparent that the sewing is loose and wont last long. The color was also much lighter than the toy he'd been playing with that belonged to the guest dog but I figured it might just be from a different dye lot (it was not bought at Amazon but their local pet store.) I am not convinced this is a real Zanies toy. There were two labels in French and it said it was made in China. I am returning this toy and will get a replacement and see how it looks. If it seems like it will fall apart or is not the real thing I will return it immediately. If it has a label and is in good shape and sewn well at the seams I'll revise this review.
