North American killies



Hello all, I happened to receive the National Audubon Society Filed Guide to 
North American Fishes, Whales & Dolphins for Christmas and flipped to their 
killie section.  There's quite a lot of killies in the US, it seems.  One 
particularly attractive one is the Golden Topminnow.  In any case, it's 
obvious that they're not as colorful as their SA and African cousins, but 
are they still collected by aquarists?  If not, why not?  Is it b/c some are 
endangered, like the Devil's Hole Pupfish, or is it just b/c no one wants 
them?  Or are they just too hard to keep?  I wouldn't mind having a few 
Pymgy Killifish to go w/ my Heterandria formosa that I'll be getting 
soon...Anyway, I'd really like it if some of you could point me towards some 
folks who know more about our native killie populations and their keeping 
conditions, etc.  Thanks in advance for any help.
