Chili Rasbora (School of 6)
Chili, or brigittae, rasboras are very small and really need to be kept in small schools. Six should be a good minimum number. Please note these wild fish are sent as chili, but sometimes on closer inspection they are strawberry or phoenix rasboras. They come in and out of our warehouse pretty quickly, so if you want to ensure that they are not a similar fish, please add “MUST BE TRUE” to the order.

I ordered a school of six chili rasboras and they arrived healthy and active. The fish are small but vibrant, and they seem to get along well with my other community fish. I added ‘MUST BE TRUE’ to the order to be sure I got the correct variety, and it worked out perfectly.

The fish are peaceful and easy to maintain. I kept them in a 10-gallon tank with other small fish, and they don’t seem to stress anyone. I noticed one was slightly different in color, but I assume it’s a natural variation. Overall, a good choice for a beginner.

I’ve had these for a few weeks now and they’re very active and colorful. The tank looks much more lively with them. I didn’t have any issues with compatibility or behavior. The packaging was secure and the fish were in good condition upon arrival.
