Peer review

[edit]

Nice work on this article! Here's my minor comments:

Lead section

[edit]
  • may be known as the -- It is, or isnt, or is occassionally known as.... "may" sounds odd to me.
  • is poorly known. -- sounds odd to me. Is poorly studied?

Taxonomy

[edit]

Appearance

[edit]
  • Wikify different fin types
  • cm for centimetres

Distribution

[edit]
  • On the other hand change to "In contrast,"

In the aquarium

[edit]
  • P. heterura can be found on certain online marine aquarium fish stores, but is not common. No reference? Wonder if needed.
  • Other aquarium care issues? Compatability? etc. Recommend minor expansion of this section

Other comments

[edit]
  • No information on diet, reproduction, sexual dimorphism, predators? though my very limited searches suggest there's not a lot known about the species.

Hope this helps a bit! Cheers, David. MidgleyDJ 06:55, 10 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It does. After looking at some other articles I realized this article has a long way to go. By WP:MOSNUM, I think the units shouldn't be abbreviated unless inside parentheses. I didn't reference the online marine aquarium fish stores thing. I can definitely find these stores, but referencing a store doesn't seem quite right. I suppose this may count as original research if I can't find a reference, though. MiltonT 17:13, 10 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Just one point I forgot to mention - is there any information on the venom? MidgleyDJ 01:15, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Unfortunately, I haven't found anything yet that actually talks about the venom of this genera, just that these fish are venomous MiltonT 03:35, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
