The Emerald Eye Rasbora are very active and add a nice visual variety to the tank. I kept them with other peaceful community fish and they get along well. The yellow dorsal fin with the black spot is striking and they swim in schools, making the tank lively.

They are easy to care for and adapt well to a planted tank. I feed them flake and a bit of bloodworms each day. They stay active and don’t stress other fish in the tank.

Great addition to a community aquarium. The fish are colorful and peaceful. I noticed they prefer areas with some cover and move around a lot during the day.
