The pink color is stunning and really adds a vibrant touch to my tank. The fish are active and don’t stress other species. I’ve had them for three months and they’re still healthy and colorful.

Great for adding visual appeal. They swim in schools and look lively. I feed them a mix of flakes and frozen food, and they eat well. A bit shy at first but settle in quickly.
