Pseudomugil luminatus – Red Neon Blue-eye πŸ”₯πŸ’™ by ShChil

Pseudomugil luminatus is a small but striking rainbowfish relative from southern New Guinea, Indonesia. It inhabits shallow, slow-moving swamp habitats, often with soft, slightly acidic and tannin-stained water surrounded by dense vegetation.

Males reach only around 2–2.5 cm, but develop an impressive orange-red body, a bright neon-blue line along the back and beautifully spotted fins. The species was scientifically described in 2016 and was previously often traded as Pseudomugil cf. paskai β€œRed Neon”.

Despite its tiny size, it is one of the most colourful blue-eyes in the aquarium hobby. 🐟✨
