Originating from Australia, more precisely from rivers and waterways in eastern Queensland, this fish is characterized by its elongated body and small size. Despite its striking appearance, it is not as well-known or commonly found in the aquarium hobby as some of its rainbowfish counterparts, but it captivates those who keep it with its vivid colors and dynamic behavior.
