The fish are very active and their green color shines under regular aquarium lights. I kept them in a 20-gallon planted tank with Java fern and they swim together in a nice school. They seem healthy and easy to maintain.

Great addition to my planted tank. The neon green color stands out well. I bought a group of six and they are very social. They don’t stress easily and adapt quickly to the tank setup.

Tank-bred quality is evident. The fish are lively and stay together in a coordinated way. I didn’t have to adjust water parameters much after introducing them. A beautiful choice for a nano fish display.
