Blue Rainbowfish, also known as Lake Kutubu Rainbowfish, have a striking blue body that shimmers under light, making them an eye-catching addition to any aquarium.

Minimum Tank Requirements:

  • Tank Size: 100 litres or more
  • Temperature: 24-28°C
  • pH: 6.5-7.5

Tankmates:
They are peaceful but active, making them a good match for similar-sized community fish like tetras, barbs, danios, and peaceful cichlids.

Diet:
Omnivorous. Provide flakes, pellets, and occasional live or frozen foods such as bloodworms, brine shrimp, and daphnia.

Care Tips:
Blue Rainbowfish should be kept in groups of 6 or more for best health and colouration. They appreciate a planted tank with open swimming areas and good water flow.
