Some small things; it looks like many of the issues I raised in the GAN for T. jaculatrix are already good here—thanks!

  • Be consistent in writing "T. chatareus is ..." etc. (singular) or "T. chatareus are ..." etc. (plural). I prefer singular; you probably prefer plural since you use that most.
  • T. chatareus become reproducible - as far as I know, only experiments can be reproducible. Changed to "reproductively active", which I assume is what you meant.
  • Perhaps rephrase the sentences about the upper and lower temperature limit to make them less repetitive
  • Are they found in Papua New Guinea too (apparently yes, according to the conservation status section)? Bangladesh? And what exactly is "Southeast Asia"—the term normally includes Indonesia, but do they also occur in the Philippines or Vietnam?

  • I've addressed the issues above; thank you for fixing the second, that is what I meant. Not sure why I thought "reproducible". The most detailed source I have on its habitat does not say anything about Vietnam or the Philippines, but it does mention Burma and New Guinea, which I have added. I am in the process of cropping the image now. Intelligentsium 23:20, 16 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. Does the source define "Southeast Asia", though? Ucucha 23:27, 16 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • The crop is done (using my Commons alt account, "Intelligentsium" was already taken there when I registered). There seems to be a small piece I missed; I'll probably have to crop it again. The source does not explicitly define "Southeast Asia"; the exact words are "Toxotes chatareus is widely distributed, occurring in India, South-East Asia, Indonesia, New Guinea and northern Australia. Its distribution in northern Australia [...]", after which the source proceeds to give specific rivers in Australia. Intelligentsium 23:38, 16 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. I am passing this now as a GA. Ucucha 17:46, 17 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for your review and comments. Cheers, Intelligentsium 21:45, 17 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It says on this page that they must be fed live food, but I've kept these on three occasions and have been able to keep them nice and plump on a diet of freeze-dried plankton with the occasional wad of frozen bloodworms. 72.77.93.75 (talk) 17:16, 23 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
