Harlequin Rasbora - Trigonostigma Heteromorpha

Harlequin Rasbora Tetras, known for their vibrant coloration and peaceful nature, originate from the clear waters of Southeast Asia. These small, schooling fish display a striking blend of orange, black, and silver hues, adding a captivating allure to any aquarium. 

Diet:

These Rasboras thrive on a varied diet consisting of high-quality flake food, supplemented with live or frozen fare like brine shrimp and bloodworms. They appreciate densely planted tanks with soft, slightly acidic water and a gentle flow.

Tank Mates:

Ideal tank mates for Harlequin Rasboras include peaceful community fish such as other Rasbora species, small Tetras, and peaceful bottom-dwellers like Corydoras catfish. Their calm demeanor and non-aggressive behaviour make them suitable for community setups.

Behavioural Traits:

Given their peaceful nature, they do best in groups of six or more to feel secure and display their natural schooling behavior. With their forgiving nature and adaptability, Harlequin Rasboras are suitable for aquarists of various experience levels, though beginners should ensure stable water conditions.

Water Parameters:

Maintaining water temperatures between 72-77°F (22-25°C) and pH levels of 6.0-7.0 replicates their native environment and promotes their overall health and vibrant colours.
