The Orange Bushfish (Microctenopoma ansorgii) is also known as the "Ornate Ctenopoma" and is a small related of the more common gouramis. They have brown bodies with darker brown vertical bands. The bands extend into the fins where they are separated by brighter reddish-orange patches. This is the most colourful of the African anabantoids and is much sought after by hobbyists. A male in full breeding dress is truly a sight to behold. Provide a diet consisting mainly of small frozen or live food. Rarely accepts dried foods.
