Special Requirements - No special requirements, providing you take into account their small stature. They are a shoaling fish, so should ideally be kept in numbers of 8 or more.
Tanks Mates and Compatibility - These little Rasbora are a perfect accompaniment for Shrimps and other small tetra.
Feeding - In the aquarium it will accept dried foods of a suitable size but should not be fed these exclusively. Daily meals of small live and frozen fare such as Daphnia, Artemia and suchlike will result in the best colouration and encourage the fish to come into breeding condition.
We recommend:
Please note – Some images used are library photos and will show the colour potential at a fully mature size, as our fish are juveniles they may vary.
