What Are Limia?

Limia are freshwater livebearers known for their active behavior, social nature, and interesting patterns or body shapes. Like other livebearers, they give birth to live fry rather than laying eggs.

Popular Limia species include Humpback Limia, Black-Bar Limia, Perugiae Limia, Tiger Limia, and other Caribbean livebearers. Availability may vary depending on current livestock shipments and local pickup inventory.

• Can work well in species-focused setups
• May breed in stable aquariums when males and females are kept together

Great for Planted Tanks and Community Aquariums

Limia can do well in planted freshwater aquariums that provide open swimming space, stable water quality, and areas of cover. Live plants, driftwood, rocks, and décor can help create visual barriers and hiding places for fry.

Because Limia are social livebearers, they are usually best kept in groups when tank size allows. Research each species before purchase, since adult size, temperament, and ideal water parameters can vary.

Ideal Tank Mates

• Tetras
• Rasboras
• Corydoras catfish
• Peaceful livebearers
• Snails
• Other calm freshwater community fish with similar care needs

Avoid housing Limia with aggressive cichlids, large predators, or fish that may nip fins or outcompete them heavily for food.
