Petitella bleheri characin found in Amazon Basin in Brazil and Peru . It is one of three species commonly referred to as the rummy-nose tetra firehead tetra .[2]
Taxonomy and systematics [ edit ]
The specific name, bleheri , honors the species’ discoverer, Heiko Bleher .[3]
The mitochondrial genome of Petitella bleheri was fully sequenced in 2015 using standard polymerase chain reaction (PCR) techniques, and found to be 17,021 base pairs long.[4]
Distribution and habitat [ edit ]
This species is found in the Rio Negro and Rio Meta basins.[2]
Omnivorous and will accept just about anything offered. Species does have a small mouth so correspondingly sized foods are best. Feed a mixture of dried flakes and granules and small live and frozen foods. A varied diet such as this is essential for the best colour development.[citation needed
In the aquarium [ edit ]
This species is common in the aquarium trade . Between the years of 2006 to 2015, 7,178,906 specimens of Petitella bleheri were exported from the Amazonas state of Brazil, accounting for 5.04% of all fish exported from Amazonas for the ornamental fish trade during that time.[5]
