A word of caution
| General |
I was told I could have more than one if I had a large tank. Since I have a 150 and consider that a large tank I bought 3. I placed all 3 in at the same time from the same store. For the first week or so they stayed pretty close to each other but then split up. After another week or so they started fighting. I could have had 3 male I guess but I don't think the likelihood is high. They fought until only one was left. If I ever buy more of these fish and I might I would only buy 1. |

firefish
| General |
My dart fish didn't come out for a week or so and is very timid, hell never rush for food but wait for the scraps that come his way. He looks amazing especially under actinics and is never a problem. He needs a lid or may try to swim out. |

Great fish for a Peaceful tank!
| General |
These are neat little fish they mind there own business and are not the least bit agressive. They can be housed in small groups but should not be house with any agressive fish as they will tend to be harassed. Make sure that you have a lid on the tank because if they get scared they will rocket out of the tank, this happened a few times and found the fish in the over flow once the next time he wasnt so fortunate. |
| Liked about it |
These are great fish fun to watch the dorsal fin pops up and down looks almost like a lighter.

Be careful as they can be jumpers, need to be in a passive tank.
