Dority's Rainbowfish - 2-3" Pair (1 Male, 1 Female). Remarks: Dority's Rainbowfish males have silver bodies with red zig-zag stripes running horizontally across their body, earning them the nickname "Zig Zag Rainbowfish." Females are silver or bronze in color and lack the stripes. 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. Glossolepis 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 in separate tanks to avoid predation. Most Rainbows show their best colors at sunrise, when the males display their bright fins. Source: Imperial Tropicals live fish catalogue.
