Wrestling Halfbeak (Dermogenys pusilla)
This beautiful livebearing fish has very vibrant platimum/silver colors and an eye-catching mouth. They are carnivores and can be fed a mixture of live or frozen foods as well as flakes.
This oddball livebearer is super popular for its unique look and snout looking mouth. Though timid at first, they will become lively fish after adjusting to their new surroundings and can be kept in varying pH/water hardness levels and fresh to slightly brackish water!
Size is about half an inch to 1 inch.
Also known as the Malayan Halfbeak, Platinum Halfbeak or Silver Halfbeak Livebearer.

Nicest fish
Both arrived live and well a bit smaller than expected but great selection. Instantly coped with their new home highly recommended

Good fast shipping and packaging, including the size bags used. The only thing I was a bit disappointed with was; my order was only 5 wrestling and 5 forest halfbeaks. At the juvenile size I got, you cannot tell them apart. Since their water parameters are very different, it would've been nice if they marked the bags which was which. I've had wrestling before so I hope I guessed correctly. The forest halfbeaks don't seem quite as bright silver. And I know the red markings on wrestling fins. Hopefully I guessed right.

I ordered three of the wrestling halfbeaks. I expected a delay in shipping, but they came the next day. They were all very healthy and are in their new home now. I am really enjoying their different look, and I needed some top Swimmers. Super cool little fish.

I am seriously addicted to these fish. So I ordered 10 more. The prices are good. The shipping was perfect. I asked to have them bagged individually. They did everything I asked. Communication with them by email and phone was great also. I'll definitely order from here again. Thank you Petzone!

The order came in very fast and on time. Down to within a half hour of when it initially said it would be delivered it was. However, sadly my 3 wrestling halfbeaks were not able to make the trip. They were all dead by the time I opened the box. Thank you

Unique addition to community tank.
This fish is fun to watch. He's a delicate fish, much smaller than I expected. Arrived alive and is healthy and peaceful.
