Pretty colours, just a horrible shape to them imo, they look like nature gone wrong

I think they are amazing fish ! They add such colour and movement to the tank and have real characters. This guy and another red ive had for about 2 years now from juveniles along with 2 x Boesemanis. They are very slow growing and take a year to fully grow, and its a shame cos they get overlooked as Rainbowfish are very dull and uninteresting whilst young.

Hes around 5 inches Pyrofishtoo.

Ive just bought another x 3 juvenile electric blue rainbowfish and look forward to watching them grow and get their full colouring.

Heres a photo of fido one of my Boesmanis - his tail has been like that since a baby!
