Red-striped rasbora

The Red-striped rasbora is a small, vibrantly colored freshwater fish known for its striking red stripe that runs horizontally along the length of its body. Originating from Southeast Asia, specifically in regions such as Borneo and Sumatra, its natural habitat includes shallow, slow-moving streams and rivers with dense vegetation. Typically, this fish exhibits a slender, elongated body shape with a predominantly silver color that contrasts beautifully with its vivid red stripe. It is moderately well-known in the aquarium hobby, particularly prized by enthusiasts for its peaceful nature and striking appearance, making it a popular choice for community tanks.
