Petco has a fish called a banded panchex, i have never seen or heard of this b4, and as far as i could tell neither had the girl at petco 8O big suprise there

does anyone know anything about this fish>

All I could find is it is some sort of killifish, no reference to the banded panchex at all. Panchex alone, yes. What does it look like?

Too bad that link says it's very difficult to maintain in an aquarium -- it's really neat-looking.

Thats a pretty fish! if its like other killifish it shouldn't be hard to maintain.. my golden wonder kili ate anything small enough to fit in its mouth.. peacefull my ass.. LOL. But it lived until i sold it back.

ummm.. all omnivoris or carnivorus fish will eat any fish that will fit into its mouth.. its perfectly normal behavior..

Killifish are gorgeous! Not hard to keep at all. My suggestions from personal experience are:

1. No small fish like neons
2. No small-ish fish with longer fins - my killifish beat up my long-finned danios tails, but did not nip at their bodies.
3. They spend most of their time at the surface, so the surface should not be crowded with other surface dwellers.
4. Keep them fed well with a variety of foods like shrimp, krill, live foods, frozen foods.

humm that is not what it looked like, body shape was the same, but coloring was different

greenish-yellow with red tip to fins, not "bands"
