Victor Butler –
The red fins stand out beautifully in the tank. They are active but not overly aggressive, and they pair well with my cichlids. Easy to care for and maintain a healthy school.
Boris Kelly –
I added a small group to my 55-gallon tank. They look vibrant and swim well together. The blue body and red fins create a nice contrast with my cichlids.
Simon Dyer –
Great addition to my community tank. They don’t stress the cichlids and are active without being too bold. Very satisfied with the purchase.
