FAQ
Are they good for beginners?
Yes. They are relatively hardy when kept in stable conditions.
Where do they swim in the tank?
Mostly top to mid-water, unlike many nano fish that stay lower.
Can I keep just a few?
Not recommended. They show best colour and behaviour in groups of at least 6.
Do they jump?
Yes, they can jump, so a lid or covered tank is recommended.
Are they shrimp-safe?
Generally yes, especially with larger shrimp, though very small shrimplets may be at risk.
