Maintain these water conditions for optimal health and vibrant colors
Boesemani Rainbowfish Red is our red/orange trade form of Melanotaenia boesemani, the classic Boesemani Rainbowfish from the Ajamaru Lakes region of West Papua. It is a fast, confident schooling fish for a mature planted aquarium with open swimming space.
Keep Boesemani Rainbowfish with peaceful, active tank mates that cannot fit in their mouths. They suit planted aquariums with current, open water and a tight lid. Feed a varied omnivore diet so the fish develop full adult colour over time.
Livestock is packed for a licensed live-animal courier service and covered by our Live Arrival Guarantee when the product is available and delivery conditions are suitable.
