Rare fish ?-Inlecypris auropurpureus

[kevinf]

Hi, I bought two of these fish, Inlecypris atropurpureus. They are in my 21g doing well for 3 weeks now. There is very little info on them, anyone know anything?
Thanks

I've not owned them myself, a member here sarahbravo has/had some so a pm to her may give you some personal insite.

I can say they will reach 10cm as adults and that your tank will be too small for them then. They do best in temps between 22-24c.
Inlecypris auropurpurea
one common name is lake Inle rasbora.
