The fish arrived healthy and active. I kept it in a 40-gallon tank with plenty of plants and driftwood. It’s calm now and eats regularly. Good for beginners who want a colorful, low-maintenance fish.

It’s a beautiful fish with vibrant red coloring. I noticed it was slightly territorial at first, so I added more hiding spots. Now it’s peaceful and coexists well with other non-aggressive species.

Easy to care for. Feeds well on flakes and frozen food. The tank temperature stayed stable, and the pH level remained within the recommended range. Very satisfied with the purchase.
