| − | :Mature females will have a fuller belly and be slightly larger than males. Males have brighter colours than females. | + | |tank_compatibility=:This is a particularly shy Rasbora which does best in groups of at least 6 or more. It is best kept in tanks with similar sized very peaceful fish, nothing boisterous or very active. Fish such as ''[[Corydoras pygmaeus]]'', [[Otocinclus]] and other small species of Rasbora would be ideal. |
| − | + | |diet=:Should be fed small meaty foods such as [[brine shrimp]] and [[daphnia]]. May also accept small pellet or flake foods. | |

| − | = | + | |environment_specifics=:These fish must have acidic water, they will not cope in alkaline conditions. They are particularly sensitive to water chemistry so should only be added to very mature tanks. They are best in heavily planted tanks with dark substrate and with soft filtration and plenty of hiding places. They do very well in [[tannin]] filled water with dried leaf litter on top of substrate. |
