    Hey, I have a few harlequin rasbora's that want to lay eggs, but this issue is I have this one alpha male that is a little older that constantly courts her and chases away the other younger males.

The 4 remaining from the original batch of 6 I bought...

    Aggressive Rasboras

    I own four harlequin rasboras and they have recently become more aggressive towards each other. One of them is a bit fatter than before, so my hypothesis is that she has eggs and the others are males fighting over her. However, I really don’t want them to get hurt. Other sources said to feed...

    Harlequin Rasbora Dying One By One

    I just bought 5 harlequin rasbora for my new aquarium 3 days ago at petco. They seemed happy and were very active, and ate well. Two died today.
