Ex-LFS manager/ keeper of over 30 danio species
Hi
I have today brought home
1X rasbora elegans Elegant rasbora; who is, incidently, schooling very nicely with my giant danios.
6x Hyphessobrycon bentosi Ornate tetra aka Roberts tetra
and what I thought were 6x Gymnocorymbus ternetzi Black widow tetra.
however this is one of the "black widows", s/he is clearly not, so what is it?
just a note on the elegant rasbora
I know they are schooling fish and need to be in groups, but this came into us at work from a customer weeks ago. I have been unable to get any for stock, so thought I'd take it on myself, and put with my larger danios (Giants, Moustached and Bengals). At least this way s/he is in a large tank with the company of similar shaped fish.
Rest assured as soon as I can find more I will buy more.
