Stunning in planted tanks
Peaceful community fish
Phoenix Rasboras (Boraras merah) are tiny red-orange nano fish that show especially well against dark substrate, leaf litter, and green plants.
They prefer mature, calm aquariums with stable water, gentle flow, and a proper social group.
Care Notes
Use tiny foods, gentle filtration, and dense planting. Dark substrate and subdued lighting help their warm color stand out.
Keep at least 10 and avoid large or boisterous tank mates that can intimidate them at feeding time.
