More about Delicate blue-eye

The Delicate blue-eye is a striking small fish known for its vibrant blue eyes, contrasting with its primarily silvery body. It originates from freshwaters in Oceania, particularly noted for its presence in Papua New Guinea. Its appearance features subtle colorations with hints of iridescence, especially noticeable in the right lighting. While aesthetically appealing, the Delicate blue-eye is not as well-known or widespread in the aquarium hobby as some other species. Its delicate nature and specific habitat requirements may contribute to its lesser popularity among enthusiasts.
