Anableps - The Four-eyed Fish! by godman01(m): 9:45pm On Sep 15, 2014 |
Anableps anableps (Linnaeus 1758) is quiet fish found in the lagoons of Central and South America. Also it can live in freshwater, it prefers a brackish environment. Most of the species available to the hobbyists have been captured from the wild as this fish is extremely difficult to breed. Furthermore, Anableps anableps can be quite difficult to acclimate as they do not travel well and require extremely clean waters. Other species of the same genus include Anableps dovi (Gill 1861) and microlepis (Muller & Troschel 1844). Anableps anableps is an odd ball fish. Featuring “split eyes”, this fish is able to look above and below the water surface at the same time. Its split retina has two regions. The ventral region, enabling it to see above water and the dorsal region, allowing it to see clearly below water. For this reasons, this fish has been more commonly called the “Four Eyed Fish”. http://www.fishandtips.com/displaydb.php?ID=66
