Boraras Merah

£2.50

A beautiful species with a pinkish body marked with three reddish areas around small dark green patches. Another small dark spot is present at the base of the anal fin. The dorsal has a red patch about halfway up. Full colouration is only developed in the right conditions: the tank must be shady, with peat-filtered water and a dark substrate. Under average aquarium conditions, this fish can seem rather unremarkable because the colours fade away.

Description

Lives in still and slow flowing waters including ponds and swamps. Appreciates a thickly vegetated aquarium with plenty of shade. Filter the water through peat. Given its tiny adult size, this species is best kept either alone or with other very small species, such as Corydoras hastatus and Dario spp.
