COLLECTION No. 5 
The gold helleri or swordtail grows simi¬ 
lar in size to the well known Mexican Sword¬ 
tail. It differs in color only. No. 2 and 
No. 4 show the variations in colors of the 
Betta from Cambodia (Cambodia is a small 
state near Siam in China). No. 3, the blood 
red moon is well known and is a live bearer, 
the same as the gold helleri. No. 5, Pearl 
danio, scientifically known as the Brachy- 
danio albolineatus, more commonly known 
as the Mother of Pearl fish, is a native of 
India, very hardy and an egglayer. All of 
these species are ideal community tank fish 
and peaceful. Two Betta males however can 
not be kept in the same tank. They are also 
known as Siamese Fighting Fish.
