What kind of fish is this..

[ChristinaE12]

I know I could search but I know there are many people here who could probably tell me right away without researching too.

I just know it likes to chase a couple others around at times and my step daughter picked it out a while back and I never knew what it was. I particularly don't care that much for it either.

Thanks for the help.

Yups that is fo sho a Lake Kutubu/ blue/turquoise rainbowfish. I have 4 in my tank and they school together nicely and don't bother any other fish. They show their best colours in a group too

Yeah.. Just read up on them and they seem to be better off in schools. Maybe that is why this one is a little turd and chases the others. I also see minimum tank size suggested is 50 gallon. Do not know why LFS do not tell you these things..

When my 55gal. is done cycling I'll have to buy a couple more I suppose and put them in there.



Thanks for the help.

Nice jib on the research, in a group in your 55 I think they will quickly become a favorite fish. I love rainbows.
