Dwarf Rasbora

Dwarf Rasbora are small shoaling fish that are native to slow-moving blackwater environments in Southeast Asia. These timid fish are best suited to a species-specific aquarium since they can be easily stressed when living with other incompatible species. If they are placed with other species, tank mates should be carefully selected. Other small fish with similar temperaments, such as other Rasbora species, may be a good choice. Dwarf Rasbora are sensitive to water quality changes and are best kept by moderately experienced hobbyists. As this is a shoaling species, it prefers to live in groups of 8 or more. If kept singly, it will likely become stressed and susceptible to disease.
