My work mates sister has three of these in a small coldwater tank, she started off with more but with bullying etc she only has three left. She was bought them and she thinks they are called Dace. I googled this and saw to what size they can reach. The fish are for her son. Would she be better putting these into a pond and maybe with a help of a heater have some neons or guppy's. I did give her a couple of Apple snails (which her son loved) but I also think the dace did too. Would really welcome some advice on these, so I can pass it on. :good:
 
Have a look at the red belly dace, there are two varieties which get to between 2"-4" so should be fine for life in adequately sized fish tank
 
that picture is off a number of different websites, therefore, go back to where you found it and there it will give you all the information you need.

Hi dave,

That's the picture she sent to me. I'm not familiar with this type of fish, that's why I asked for advice. I want to make sure that she hasn't been bought the wrong type of fish.
