Description
Yellow Rainbowfish - 1-2" Female. Remarks: Yellow Rainbows are another classic in the hobby for their bright colors, ranging from yellow to orange to red. They belong to the same group of rainbowfish as the Turquoise Rainbows and may have evolved from a shared ancestor. They are found near the shore of small creeks and streams in Papua New Guinea, where they congregate around vegetation. These fish are omnivorous and should be fed a quality flake food with supplemental proteins such as baby brine shrimp. They require clean water but tolerate a wide variety of water parameters. By providing frequent water changes, you will be rewarded with nearly continuous spawning attempts. Melanotaenia species deposit eggs in weedy areas (often mimicked by a yarn mop) and the eggs hatch 7-10 days later. Eggs can be harvested for hatching. Source: Imperial Tropicals live fish catalogue.
