Axelrod Rasbora
Axelrod Rasboras (Rasbora axelrodi) are small, peaceful fish with vibrant coloring that make great additions to community aquariums. Here's a short care guide to ensure they thrive:
1. Tank Size
- Minimum Size: 10 gallons.
- Axelrod Rasboras prefer to be kept in small schools of at least 6-8 fish. A larger tank will provide them with space to swim and reduce stress.
2. Water Conditions
- Temperature: 72-80°F (22-27°C).
- pH: Slightly acidic to neutral (5.5-7.0).
- Hardness: Soft to moderate (3-10 dGH).
- Water Type: Prefer clean, well-filtered water with gentle currents. Regular water changes (20-30% weekly) are crucial.
3. Diet
- Axelrod Rasboras are omnivores. Feed them a varied diet of high-quality flake food, micro pellets, and occasional live or frozen foods like daphnia or brine shrimp.
4. Tank Mates
- They are peaceful and do well with other small, non-aggressive fish such as neon tetras, shrimp, and peaceful bottom dwellers. Avoid aggressive or large fish.
5. Tank Setup
- Provide plenty of plants and swimming space. Floating plants help create cover while also maintaining a calm environment.
- Driftwood or rocks can offer hiding spots, though it’s important to ensure the tank is not too cluttered.
