They are pale brown and have darker brown stripes on the body. The back fin has a black dot at the end. If that helps.... Not at home at the moment

Striata i think, normally their juvie got black dot at the end of the dorsal fin. same to mine. regarding to their stripe, it is hard to say. they may changed color due to stressed.

Ah. Thanks a lot! I did some searching and seen their size... But another question I have is, will they be as active as micros?? Cause I see them darting around now and hope they'll stay that way.. Really nice touch to my tank!

Maybe they look around their new enviroment. They are bottom dweller. Some of them will be shy. The way they eat look like micro i mean nothing left when they hungry. Just add some more hiding spot for them and also floating plant to avoid them jump out. I used more drift wood for them for hiding but still left a space for them to swim freely. One more thing, try to feed them with meal worms. My striatas quite shy but by that time for feeding they will come out from their hiding . You will enjoy feeding them lol.

I think the most similar attitude to micro is marulioides.

That is Striata exactly. Same this

In my country, its very popular species and delicious ...

And the largest Striata ever seen in my country could reach 1 meter long and weight ~12kg
