Description
The smallest fish species in North America and one of the smallest worldwide, least killifish (Heterandria formosa) is a livebearing species, meaning that the young are released from the mother only once they have already hatched. It is sometimes kept in aquaria, although not as much as its cousins the guppies and mollies.
