Description
Millennium Rainbowfish - 2-3" Breeder Pack (1 Male, 3 Female). Remarks: The millennium rainbow's scientific name, Glossolepis pseudoincisus , references it's similarity to the Irian red rainbow, G. incisus . Males are deep red with a gold base under the scales, while females are yellow-gold with zig-zagging red lines along the lower half of the body. 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. Source: Imperial Tropicals live fish catalogue. Please confirm current availability, size, price, delivery and collection terms with the seller.
