In this episode, the Water Colors team shares their favorite species of rainbowfish. Best known for the dazzling colors they exhibit, there is most certainly a rainbowfish for every aquarist. From larger melanotaenia species that can easily fill out a 90 gallon aquarium, to small and flashy pseudomugils fit for blackwater or even brackish tanks! Many rainbowfish are notorious for taking a while to show off their true colors, but we promise that good things take time! Let’s learn about some of the team’s favorite species of rainbowfish.
