Emily Posted December 3, 2006 Report Share Posted December 3, 2006 Hi everyone, I'm from the wet and windy wairarapa. I have recently converted to live plants and will be converting to tropical soonish. I'm looking at buying a small school of harlequin rasbora and was just wondering if anyone has had much experience with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Posted December 3, 2006 Report Share Posted December 3, 2006 Welcome aboard Emily. I think there is a pretty good club down your way. They just put on a good Livebearers Show. Have a look under the Club area for details. Alan 104 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted December 3, 2006 Report Share Posted December 3, 2006 Hi Emily, A school of harlequins looks pretty. They are much more colourful when in a large group. Easy to look after with basic requirements. Well suited to a community tropical tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afrikan Posted December 3, 2006 Report Share Posted December 3, 2006 Hi Emily Welcome to the forum, this is a great place We keep Harlequin Rasbora in our planted community... they are stunning in a school, we used to have about 50 schooling in our 6ft tank when it was a community... definately a fish I would always consider..

Foxglove Posted December 4, 2006 Report Share Posted December 4, 2006 Hi Emily, Welcome! I have a small school of harlequins (10) that I keep in a wide two foot tank. (they will soon get a 3 foot one, yay!) Then I'll get more of them... I've had them only a few months, but they are really great fish. However, I did have a few die soon after getting them, so I wouldn't add them first, wait until your tank is mature. I think I hurried the introductions a bit. Mine are currently in with a pair of kribensis and a male betta (Siamese fighter) with no trouble! Cheers, Hellen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
