Asian Rummy Nose Rasbora (Sawbwa resplendens) 2-2.5cm

Description

Asian Rummy Nose, also known as the Rummy Nose Rasbora (Sawbwa resplendens), is a captivating freshwater fish native to Asia, particularly Myanmar (formerly Burma). Let’s dive into the ultimate care guide for this eye-catching species:

  1. Appearance and Common Names:

    • The Asian Rummy Nose Rasbora has several common names, including Sawbwa Barb, Mynamar Oriental Fish, Burmese Rummynose, and Burmese Rammy Nose.
    • Its streamlined body features a glimmering, blueish-tinted shine that stands out against a darker-themed substrate and background.
    • Despite its small size (growing close to one inch in length), its beautiful coloration and shoaling behavior make it an excellent addition to community or planted aquariums.

  2. Habitat and Natural Behavior:

    • In the wild, these rasboras inhabit slow water streams and shallow waters near Myanmar.
    • They thrive amidst dense vegetation, submerged plants, and other herbaceous growth.
    • Their diet includes small invertebrates, zooplankton, and plants.

  3. Care Guidelines:

    • Temperature: Maintain a range of 64-72°F.
    • Water pH: Keep it between 6.0 and 8.0.
    • Tank Size: A minimum tank size of 10 gallons is suitable.
    • Tank Mates: They do well with other small, schooling fish such as Danios.
    • Lifespan: In captivity, they can live 3-4 years.
    • Breeding: These egg-scattering fish lay their eggs on vegetation.
    • Disease: Watch out for common issues like Ich, parasites, and bacterial infections.

  4. Schooling Behavior:

    • Asian Rummy Nose Rasboras are shoaling fish, thriving in groups of at least 6-8 individuals.
    • Their blue-bodied school creates a stunning contrast in a well-planted aquarium.
