Kubotai Rasbora (Microdevario kubotai) – Neon Green Nano Fish for Peaceful Planted Tanks
The Kubotai Rasbora, also known as the Neon Green Rasbora, is a dazzling nano fish that glows with an electric green shimmer. With its slim profile and energetic swimming style, this peaceful species adds a lively flash of color to planted tanks and nano aquascapes. These eye-catching fish do best in schools of 6 or more, where their social and synchronized swimming behavior enhances both their beauty and confidence.
Native to the shaded, slow-moving streams of Thailand and Myanmar, Kubotai Rasboras thrive in soft, slightly acidic to neutral water with gentle flow. Their small size, gentle nature, and neon coloration make them ideal tankmates for shrimp and other tiny peaceful fish.
