Back here again, can believe the week goes so quickly let alone the month…

Fish Friday, this week we have the…

White Cloud Mountain Minnow (Tanichthys albonubes)

It is a hardy little peaceful coldwater fish ideal for beginners, known for its vibrant colours and schooling behavior, thriving in groups in unheated tanks with plants and other cool-water species like danios or platies. They are small (max 4cm), omnivorous, and adaptable, though they prefer cooler temperatures (10-24°C) and should be kept in groups of 6 or more to see their best colours and behavior.
