Differences between the Yang's killifish and the Red Emperor killifish
If you go to a specialty killifish store, you will find that some places sell both Yang's killifish and Red Emperor killifish.

Points to keep in mind when mixing swimmers
About Mixed Swimming,Some people often think that killifish can only be kept in the same species, but the real appeal of killifish is in combining them. If you are not particular about this, you can mix any kind of killifish with any other kind of killifish.However, it is best to be careful with killifish of different body types (e.g., Dharma killifish and Hirena killifish). If killifish of different body types are mixed with killifish of normal body type, problems such as inability to eat food may occur. However, there are people who mix killifish of different body types with those of normal body types, so there is no need to be concerned.However, each type of killifish, which is considered a high-end killifish, has its own distinctive appearance and shine, so it is recommended to keep them in a way that allows the enjoyment of each individual (type) rather than keeping them in many different species.
Points about spawning
The point about spawning was explained in the above section that keeping a variety of species is the best part of keeping killifish, and having various species swimming together when spawning will naturally produce killifish with the characteristics of various species. However, that is not always a good thing. For example, mixing red and white killifish can produce pink killifish, but not necessarily red or white killifish, or in the worst case, killifish with a color that is hard to describe. If you want red killifish, you should keep only red killifish because the probability of producing red killifish is much higher,I recommend that you think about what kind of killifish you want when spawning and what color and shape you want your killifish to be born, so that you will have less regret and confusion when raising them and find your own way to enjoy them.If it is just a hobby, I think you will enjoy it more if you stick to the methods that you enjoy, regardless of whether people complain about them. The following page explains the method of spawning and points to note, so please read it as well.

Points to keep in mind when keeping Yang's killifish
willow (any tree of genus Salix)Kihei killifish are widely distributed and many specialty stores carry them, so they are recommended for those who want to move up from scarlet or black killifish. Also, Yang-Pei killifish may have a light red color when young, but as they grow, they may become darker red, so please do not give up on them.If the coloring is light, it may be due to the color of the water or the environment, so simply improving these factors may help to darken the body color. For example, if the water color is transparent when kept in a glass case, the red color may become lighter due to the protective coloring that adapts to the surrounding environment when exposed to light. If you are not particular about where you place them, you can try to keep them in a slightly darker place to make the red color darker.
