📖 Micro Rasbora Care & Dwarf Shrimp Compatibility
Micro rasboras like Chili Rasboras (Boraras brigittae) and Phoenix Rasboras are among the smallest vertebrate species on Earth, reaching adult sizes of just 1.5 to 2 cm. Tiny shrimplets can still be eaten; cover is useful but cannot guarantee safety.
They display their most intense crimson coloration in established, mature tanks with subdued lighting, blackwater tannins, and abundant floating plant cover. Allow for their waste load and feed them appropriately small foods.

- • Tank Space: Refer to each species profile; Chili Rasbora guidance starts at a 45 × 30 cm footprint.
- • Shrimp Compatibility: Avoid assuming any fish is completely safe for shrimplets. Provide cover and monitor feeding.
