Maintain these water conditions for optimal health and vibrant colors
Red-Eye Spiketail Paradisefish is a small air-breathing labyrinth fish from slow, vegetated waters. It does best in calm planted aquariums with floating cover, gentle filtration and tank mates that are peaceful rather than boisterous.
Feed small quality pellets with frozen or live foods such as daphnia, brine shrimp, mosquito larvae and other small invertebrate foods. Males may guard bubble nests, so provide cover and avoid cramped mixes with other territorial labyrinth fish.
This is living livestock. We dispatch suitable orders with a licensed live-animal courier when conditions are safe, and the Live Arrival Guarantee applies when the arrival guidance is followed.
