Added a Firetail Gudgeon to my 10-gallon tank last month. It’s been active and colorful since day one. The fish blends well with other species and doesn’t stress the tank environment. A nice touch for a native-focused setup.

The fish arrived healthy and showed interest in the tank right away. It’s small but adds a lot of visual appeal. I keep it in a stable, cycled tank with other peaceful fish.

Perfect for beginners who want a vibrant, low-maintenance fish. It’s not aggressive and stays in the middle of the tank, making it easy to observe.
