Firework Rasbora

[richchappy]

Does anyone know much about these fish yet, ie what there compatable with, i know they are new but i was wondering if a group of 4 or 5 would go well in my community tank, The stocking of the 125l tank is
2 Male Guppy
4 Felmale Guppys
2 Bronze Corys aeneus
2 Albino Corys aeneus
3 Three Line Corys
1 Male Platty
2 Female Plattys
4 Neon Tetras
1 Apple snail(Golden)
I just thought these fish were really cool and new and pretty and EXPENSIVE lol but they also stay pretty small
Opinions please

the only thing that can be said, with any certainty, about this fish is
they prefer soft water.

our stock was put into a tank that was half filled with RO
and they spawned within 3 days.

I can't see a problem adding them to your posted list

If you've got the space I'd go with the plec, they're beautiful !

 

[richchappy]

What is your Ph and temp? The store I'm at has a few in, in fairly soft water around 6.5, and the fish are thriving, but not spawning. (We have either 3m, 2f from the looks of it.) We'd love to get them breeding. Any tips?
