Suitable for aquariums at least 3 ft / 1 m in length to accomodate their swimming behaviors, these fish prefer densely planted aquariums with some open areas. A hardy, unfussy species, the M. praecox is suitable for beginners and experts alike, and is an ideal entry into the wonderful world of rainbowfish!
