Species Profile

Exclamation Point Rasboras

Boraras urophthalmoides

Why We Love This Fish

  • Verified shrimp-safe species
  • Quarantined before shipping
  • Stunning in planted tanks
  • Peaceful community fish

Exclamation Point Rasboras (Boraras urophthalmoides) are among the smallest schooling fish in the hobby. Their orange-red body and dark spot-and-dash flank marking give them their common name.

They do best in mature planted aquariums with gentle flow, stable water, and a group large enough to feel secure.

Care Notes

Feed very small foods and avoid strong flow. Dense planting and dark substrate help the fish settle in and show stronger color.

Keep at least 10. Larger groups are generally more confident and active.

Why We Love This Fish

01

Genuinely Tiny

Under an inch fully grown — one of the smallest schooling fish in freshwater. They work in a true nano setup and add natural movement without outgrowing the space.

02

Nano Tank & Shrimp Friendly

Their small mouths and gentle temperament make them a popular choice for planted nano tanks alongside adult Neocaridina shrimp. Good contrast against an active shrimp colony.

03

Better in a School

Color and confidence both improve significantly with more fish. Keep 8–12 or more for the best display — a tight school in a planted blackwater tank is hard to beat.

Expert Advice
Razz Aquatics Recommendation

Keep at least 10 in a mature planted 10-gallon or larger aquarium. Dark substrate, moss, and fine-leaved plants help them feel secure and make their color stand out.

Plants That Pair Perfectly

Live plants give nano fish cover, reduce stress, and create a more natural aquarium. They help break up sightlines, provide shelter for shy fish, and support a healthier planted tank.

Add live plants to create cover, improve water quality, and build a healthier aquarium for your fish.
