The fish arrived quickly and are very active in the tank. They swim together in a school, which adds a nice visual appeal. Easy to maintain and don’t stress other fish. Great for a small community tank.

I bought this school for my first aquarium. The fish are peaceful and stay together well. They eat a variety of foods and seem healthy after a few weeks. A good choice for new aquarists.

The long fins are starting to show well after a month. The fish are active and don’t fight with other tank mates. I’m happy with the size and temperament.
