Rasboras, a vibrant group of small freshwater fish from the Cyprinidae family, are indigenous to Southeast and South Asia, including China. With around 84 recognized species, they are celebrated for their vivid colors and patterns that sparkle in light, making them favorites among aquarium enthusiasts. These peaceful fish, which usually grow less than 4 inches, are well-suited for community tanks due to their sociable nature. In their natural habitat, rasboras are found in gently flowing forest streams and floodplains, especially during the wet season, where they prefer shallow waters rich in aquatic plants. Their adaptability and low maintenance make them a perfect choice for any freshwater aquarium, where a group of rasboras can provide a stunning, lively display. Not only are rasboras cherished for their bright hues, but also for their ability to adjust to different water conditions. For maintaining rasboras in an aquarium, the recommended water parameters include a temperature range of 75°F (24°C) to 80°F (27°C), a pH level between 6.8 and 7.8, and water hardness from 2 to 15 dGH (degrees of General Hardness). Monitoring these parameters consistently and conducting regular water tests and adjustments are crucial for providing a stable environment for rasboras.
