 Live-bearing aquarium fish - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Live-bearing aquarium fish, often simply called livebearers are fish that retain the eggs inside the body and give birth to live, free-swimming young.
In contrast, fish such as splitfins and halfbeaks are viviparous, with the eggs being receive food from the maternal blood supply through structures analagous to the placenta of placental mammals.
Because the newborn fish are relatively large, typically around 10 mm in length, they are easier to feed than newly hatched fry of egg-laying species such as characins and cichlids.
