Steel Blue Killifish are quite commonly labeled as "P82", a reference to the year they first appeared in the fishkeeping hobby. They are also called Gardneri Killifish. Their bodies are blue in color and covered with many small vibrant red markings, and their fins are bright yellow. Females will be much duller looking. 

They can be fed live, frozen, pellet or high quality flake foods. They should be supplemented with bloodworms, tubifex, and daphnia for proper health. 

Since they are small, hardy and don't make much of a bioload, they can be kept in relatively small set ups.  They will also appreciate live plants. They are usually kept in  most community aquariums with small, peaceful fish. Males should never be housed together as they will fight, except for if the tank is large enough for each male to have his own territory. The tank should have a lid in case of jumping.
