They are the most common rainbow, but some shops have a few rainbows, others never have them. Probably because they have dull colouring when young which only builds when they can grow and look at their best in a home tank. They can be a bit boistrous to other fish, but ive never had any problems really. Just make sure you get at least 2 males and 3 females so that they look their best. Or you can get a group made up of other species as well as the Boesemanis like Reds, Golds or Blues.
