Verified shrimp-safe species
Quarantined before shipping
Stunning in planted tanks
Peaceful community fish
Phoenix Rasboras are tiny, peaceful nano fish with rich red-orange colour. Their small size and gentle behavior make them especially appealing in mature planted and blackwater-style aquariums with other appropriately small tankmates.
Care Notes
Phoenix Rasboras need tiny foods, calm flow, dense planting, and stable soft water. Keep them in a proper group; small groups are shy. A dark substrate and subdued lighting help their warm coloration stand out.

Common Questions
Phoenix Rasbora FAQ
Are Phoenix Rasboras safe with shrimp?+
They are safe with adult shrimp; very small shrimplets may still be at risk.
What do they eat?+
Offer tiny pellets, crushed flake, and small frozen or live foods.
Is there a live arrival guarantee?+
Yes. Photograph any DOA in the sealed bag on delivery day and submit a claim through the Start a Claim page.
How many should I keep?+
Keep a proper group. Larger groups are more confident and show more natural behavior.
How are these fish shipped?+
Fish ship via Overnight / Next Day Air in insulated packaging with weather-appropriate heat or cold protection.
How do I acclimate them?+
Float the sealed bag for 15 minutes, then drip-acclimate for 30–60 minutes. Net fish into the aquarium and do not add bag water.
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.
