Emerald Eye Rasbora
The enchanting Emerald Eye Rasbora is known from heavily-vegetated, sluggish blackwater environments including shallow forest streams and peat swamps. Unfortunately, however, much of its natural range is under threat from palm oil plantations. These fish are an ideal choice for heavily planted softwater aquaria. The tank must be mature and have myriad of hiding places amongst driftwood and thick vegetation, which should include floating species to help diffuse the light. Filtration should be good but water movement gentle.
