The fish are active and colorful, adding a lively touch to my 10-gallon tank. They seem to enjoy the flakes and occasional bloodworms I offer. Easy to care for and don’t stress the tank environment.

I’ve had them for three months and they’re still vibrant. They swim in groups and show natural behavior. Feeding them a mix of flake and frozen food keeps them healthy and active.
Maria Burgess –
Great addition to a community tank. The red fins stand out well in the water. They adapt quickly and don’t require special conditions beyond standard tropical fish care.
