Leave some open water between planted areas. Maintain stable water quality with regular partial changes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBehaviour and compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep a sizeable group, ideally with several females for each male; rival males may spar. Small, peaceful companions are suitable, but larger or boisterous fish can outcompete them for food. Avoid housing with the closely related Emerald Dwarf Rasbora where hybridisation is a concern.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDiet\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOffer very small sinking or slow-sinking foods, with varied small frozen or live Daphnia and Artemia. They may ignore food that stays at the surface, so check that every fish is feeding.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCare notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis species can be shy, so dense planting and a larger group help it settle. Watch dominant males for persistent chasing and provide enough visual cover.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLive Animals Are Click and Collect Only.\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003eYou can order online and choose click and collect and we will hold it for you.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003csmall\u003ePhotograph: Lerdsuwa, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/commons.wikimedia.org\/wiki\/File:Celestichthys_margaritatus2.jpg\"\u003eWikimedia Commons\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-sa\/2.5\/\"\u003eCC BY-SA 2.5\u003c\/a\u003e; colour adjustment by Togabi.\u003c\/small\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Glenkrag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51073513128263,"sku":"1105532","price":7.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0661\/8821\/4500\/files\/CelestialPearlDanio_Daniomargaritatus_4.png?v=1790701489","url":"https:\/\/www.newlands.ie\/products\/galaxy-rasbora-1-5cm","provider":"Newlands Garden Centre","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
