More about Clown rasbora
The Clown Rasbora (Rasbora kalochroma) is a strikingly colored freshwater fish native to Southeast Asia, particularly found in Borneo and Sumatra. It showcases a vibrant body with dominant hues of orange and black, featuring a prominent black spot near its tail. Characterized by its bright, eye-catching coloration and peaceful temperament, it typically grows to about 4 inches in length. Despite its stunning appearance, the Clown Rasbora is not as well-known or common in the aquarium hobby as some of its smaller rasbora counterparts, partly due to its larger size and specific care requirements. They prefer well-planted aquariums with soft, slightly acidic water that mimics their natural habitat.
