Dwarf Rasbora

Dwarf Rasbora from Tropical Exotics — tiny, colorful schooling fish that add life, movement, and delicate charm to planted aquariums and nano tanks. Perfect for aquarists who want low-maintenance, visually striking fish with peaceful temperaments.

Key features:

• Size: True dwarf stature (typically 0.8–1.5 inches) ideal for nano and community tanks.
• Appearance: Bright, contrasting markings and translucent fins that shimmer under aquarium lighting.
• Temperament: Peaceful schooling behavior — best kept in groups for natural, synchronized movement.
• Care level: Low to moderate; hardy species suited to both beginners and experienced hobbyists.
• Compatibility: Safe with small, non-aggressive tankmates such as small tetras, rasboras, and shrimp.

Benefits & why aquarists love them:

• Instant visual impact: Their compact size and active schooling create a lively focal point without overwhelming the tank.
• Great for planted tanks: Dwarf rasboras thrive among stem plants, mosses, and driftwood where they can dart and forage.
• Low bioload: Small size means less waste and easier water maintenance compared with larger species.
• Versatile display options: Works well in nano setups, planted community aquariums, and species-only tanks.

Care tips:

• Keep in groups of 6+ for confident behavior and best coloration.
• Provide stable water conditions: temperature 72–78°F (22–26°C), pH 6.0–7.5, soft to moderately hard water.
• Offer a varied diet: high-quality flake, micro-pellets, and occasional live or frozen foods such as daphnia and brine shrimp.
• Include plants and gentle filtration to mimic natural habitats and reduce stress.
