Hengelli Rasbora
Hengel's Rasboras are graceful and peaceful schooling fish known for their slim bodies and distinct orange-gold stripe accented by a black wedge-shaped marking. Closely related to Harlequin Rasboras, they add constant motion and color to planted aquariums and do best in calm, well-kept tanks.
