nice guppies

They keep the tank clean, by eating the leftovers

Barca can be a messy eater at times

 

[Deadeye]

Amazing!
As usual, wish I could have one…

Stunning specimen, wow.

 

[Caveden]

One of the nicest barcas I’ve seen! I’ve only ever seen one IRL, not as nice and beautiful as this

your specimen has really put on some growth on the fins. cool to see that once they reach a certain size the body grows more slowly and the fins become more extravagant

That happens based on the upkeep

For example, my fish is in a tank, without absolutely any water movement. No filtration, not even a bubble filter.

It is fed mainly on insects and macrobrachium shrimp and crab.

Was it the same with your auranti,no water movement at all? My little guy is really scared of the sponge filter for some reason and is much calmer when I turn it off.
