Blue Eye Tenellus Rainbow

Blue Eye Tenellus

As with most rainbow fish, the male blue eye tenellus rainbow fish have larger fins and more color than the female, but boths sexes are attractive. The tenellus is a great example of a small schooling rainbow. In the wild these fish are found in the "billabongs" of Australia (a word for a seasonal pond that only Australians could come up with). We ship these as close as possible 50:50 mix males and females. We recommend a School of six or more but a pair would do well in a peaceful community tank.
