    Hey folks,

    After my recent loss of fish, I was looking at replacing stocks with a few Boesmans Rainbows....

    Now, I have a pH of around 6.6 to 6.8, and my book suggests that these fish are happy in anything from 6.5 to 8.0. So I thought I'd ask you folks if you had any further info as to their suitability??

    They will share the tank with the likes of....

    Neon Tetra
    Serpea Tetra
    Pearl Gourami
    White Cloud Minnows
    Pearl/zebra Danios
    Loads of Loaches (botia and Anathingys!)

    Any Info??

    Cheers
    Big G!

    I had them before and don't put them with smaller fish as they will see them as possible food and terrorize the hell out of them. Put them in a tank with fish that can hold their own

    Cheers
