Blackbanded sunfish

The Blackbanded sunfish (Enneacanthus chaetodon) is a small, visually striking fish known for its dark vertical stripes and translucent body tinged with green and orange hues. Originating from freshwater environments along the East Coast of the United States, it boasts a distinctive appearance, with a tall, laterally compressed body. Despite its captivating look, the Blackbanded sunfish is not as well known or widely kept in the aquarium hobby as some other species, partly due to its specific care requirements and preference for cooler water temperatures.
