Perugias Limia are fun livebearers, they can grow to be 3-4"in size, but typically in the aquarium they only reach 3". Occurring in cool tropical streams they have a wide temperature tolerance and thrive in a variety of setups, but they do best in a planted tank. 

Because of their larger size a minimum 20 gallons is recommended, larger is highly recommended to support fry growing out. Being a livebearer, you can expect babies monthly when females are mature if you are not purchasing exclusively males. the number of fry you can expect from a female varies greatly.

 These fish are very social and do best when in a group minimum size 6-8.
