The fish arrived healthy and active. It has been in my 20-gallon tank for two months and is very colorful and calm. I love how it interacts with other fish without causing any stress.

It’s a small but striking fish. I was worried about it being too shy, but it quickly adapted and started swimming around the tank with the others. Great addition to my community setup.
