Use a mature aquarium with shaded planting and gentle filtration. Maintain a group with other very small, peaceful fish; larger or boisterous companions can intimidate them. Specialist guidance gives 20–28°C and pH 4.0–7.0. Supply suitably tiny dry foods plus small live or frozen items. Match acclimation to the wild batch’s holding water.

MBI-RAS-001 minimum: 300 individual fish. Prices are per individual fish. Existing quotation and business terms apply.
