  • Coloration: Bright golden-yellow body with subtle blue or red highlights depending on lighting and mood.
  • Temperament: Peaceful and social; great for community aquariums.
  • Tank Requirements:
    • Temperature: 26–30 °C (78–86 °F)
    • pH: 6.0–7.0 (slightly acidic)
    • Soft water preferred
  • Behavior: Active but gentle, often seen hovering gracefully among plants or substrate. Forms strong pair bonds and may breed in home tanks under good conditions.

Care Tips
