Dwarf Rasbora- the underrated cousin of the Chili rasbora

- Dwarf Rasbora rival Chilis in their color and beauty. Peaceful and versatile, they are an excellent choice for a heavily planted nano aquarium, often working quite well with shrimp.

Rachel O'leary theyre not too common but ellasoma evergladeii the pygmy sunfish are my favorite! So cute :3
+Teagan Combest I have some here. Great fodh. Hard to get footage of though
Rachel O'leary yes theyre so shy. NANFA member Erica Lyons has some good videos of them and so does Inglorious Bettas.

Hey Rachel! if you remember a year or so ago I got 8-10 'Boraras Maculatus' from my LFS, which turned out to be Boraras Naevus! and I could do that only because of your help! They bred, I have 2-3 fry which are now nearing adult size and they're really cool! I have them in a biotope like tank.
I've also kep B. Brigittae, Maculatus, and Merah
thanks again!
ok thank you...
Would these also be called strawberry rasbora?
I think so. My common name game is weak
Rachel , im spanish i dont understand nothing ,but i can learn seeing your vídeos about fish and i can learn a little of english ;)
I have a large group of these, they are significantly larger than Chili’s, some are 1” to 1 1/4 “ in size, they survive shipping much better than Chili’s and live peacefully with them , even exhibiting spawning behaviors inter species. chili’s are the aggressors btw and beet red , in my tank , these guy have no where near the color but are Much larger. And beautiful in their own way , also have Merah in the same tank and they are submissive.
Can you post videos
Thank you for this video it wasn't easy to find videos of these little fish. 👍
Dang. Everything always wants a max of 7 pH. My water is over 8. :c
Thanks Rachel definitely adding them to my 20 long setup because I have red cherries.
excellent as always Rachel I enjoyed this video very much Great job
Rachel's spot on about these guys, bought 14 only 2 weeks ago and they have coloured up amazingly well just within my 27 litre quarantine tank. Still prefer Chilli Rasbora, but Dwarf Rasbora are certainly a very close 2nd, along with Boraras Merah.
I have 40 of these little guy in my 20gLong they are really cute and awesome
I was considering doing the same. A year after your comment, how are they doing?
@@Tanglangfa they doing fine
@@additiveartificer9365 do they swim around much? Every video I see, they just sit there.
@@Tanglangfa they do like to move in scholl when ye near a tank but they will scattering around when there are settled
I have a 29 gallon that i am keeping smaller fish in. Currently the stock is 2 bumblebee gobies. 5 pygmy corys and some of these guys. Lets see how this goes
I love these species spotlights! I'm slowly getting my 20 gallon low tech planted tank going and I still can't decide how I ultimately want to stock it once it's been really established. I'm almost having more fun with my planted tank vs the 75 gallon cichlid tank.
Hi Rachel! I got six of these because of your video and I adore them! They’ve even had two babies survive (so far, they are juveniles now) with no intervention from me! Thanks!
Congrats!
i love this fish. what is your top favorite?
Agree Rachel really excellent fish!
liked and subbed!
I've never seen them in Texas or Fla but, I'm instantly in Love💋💗💋💗👍and want them of course. Alas I have hard water.boo hoo
I got some today, soooo in love! Keeping them w/pygmy corys, cherry shrimp & tiger shrimp. Loved the vid Rachel ;)
Have you noticed much shrimp predation? I'm thinking of the same setup soon
Excellent as always Rachel 🤗🤗
You’re so passionate about all your fish. Wish I could come into your store!! But I’m in Australia so I don’t think they’ll make it back here lol 😆
Hi Rachel. My betta died and i would like to restock the tank. It's a fluval v 5 gallons and been searching into the Rasbora's. Can you suggest which ones from this species will do well in this size of a tank when placed with a school of them. Thank You for all that you offer us here!
Hi, love your. Videos! What would you recommend in a Fluval Spec V planted tank. I wanted a few fish but I'm not sure if I should just get a betta and nothing else. What do you think? 😃thanks!
Some of those fish appear to have a smaller, less distinct caudal black dot. Is that a gender difference?
Wow ! Beautiful fish
Thanks for the video, Rachel! Have you gotten any spawning behavior from these rasboras?
+Shiera Seastar yes outside they went nuts
Cool!! :))
I have the Chili Rasbora in an established tank, but I'll have to try these in one of the new tanks I just set up this weekend - after it's cycled.
Nice I'm getting ton. Of fish tom
would you choose these or chili raboras if these are 50 cents off and the chilis are regular price?
happy new year! Love this spotlight. Can't wait for these to become available, I love these little gems!
Is this the clown rasbora?
Can other rasboras be put in a tank together (similar sized ones of course) like Galaxy and these ones or chilli ... ?
yes, though it is best to allow for enough space for each type to have a large grouping for their best behavior
Would these be compatible with celestial pearl danios in a 55 gallon heavily planted aquarium?
Yes
They look really similar to the strawberry rasbora! What's the difference in temperament and size?
i believe they are the same thing
love the exclamation point rasbora
first?
Justin Loitz bad day
I’m looking for fish for my 2.5
Love your videos! Can't wait to order some from you!
Great video. good information :)
Can they live by theirselves
Threadfin rainbowfish
ty good stuff
,beautiful. can i keep them with white cloud mountain minnows?
Minnows are cold water fish , these are tropical fish.
I can keep 6 dwarf rasbora together with 6 mosquito boraras?
+Razon Tobacco yes
How many roughly for a heavily planted fluval flex 34l? 6?
You could easily have 12 in a 34 litre...
crazee635 cool may buy a bunch! 👍
On the Fluval Flex you made need to cover the small gaps at the back of the tank with either mesh/filter pad etc as they may slip through into the filter compartment!!!
crazee635 already sorted that haha 👍
Oh cool!!!
👍
Love your species spotlight videos...have you ever kept clown killifish? Never kept any killifish myself, but they look like an interesting species.
+Jeremy Beam yes, I think I did a species spotlight on them
Rachel O'leary Haha...well that might be why I think they are cool 😄
just curious if these would be able to match up.with kribs...also i thought you had a video on Endlers livebearers but i can not find it...if you did can you send me a link or title to locate it? : ) ty
+Tin Fraz I haven't done one yet, but soon!
+Tin Fraz these may be a bit smaller than I would be comfortable pairing with kribs
Hi, good video! Do both genders turn red or is it just the males?
+Mattias both get a degree of red eith males more vivid
Can I have 50 of these in 20g long?
40 would be better. They're good for about 2 per gallon.
Hey Rachel been a fan for a long time since you started posting spotlights and I enjoy each one. just starting to get back into the community and be more active! thank you again for all your work and content!
+Next Gen Aquarium thanks :)
Can i mix them with guppies?
Mark Lester Leal rasboras and guppies have very different needs for water quality. Guppies like salty alkaline water and would literally start slowly falling apart in the acidic, tannin rich waters that rasboras prefer
These would be awesome fish for a planted nano.
The audio is so bad I just stopped watching. Sorry
So, anyone know where to buy these Dwarf Rasboras or Chili Rasboras? No one seems to have stock with the pandemic going on.
My local store in Salem Oregon had both. Bought dwarf Rasbora today!
Aquatic Arts has chili rasboras and dwarf rasboras right now! I ordered some and they come in the mail tomorrow!
I have a really tiny tank, like 5 gallons, is that too small even for dwarf rasboras ?
