Chili Rasbora

Adults inhabit still or gently flowing, tannin-stained waters of Southeast Asian peat swamps and forest pools. They feed on minute crustaceans, worms, insect larvae, and zooplankton picked from open water and vegetation. Males can display especially vivid red coloration when competing or courting in clear patches among plants.
