Rasbora trilineata

Rasbora trilineata is a slender, active schooling fish commonly known as the scissortail rasbora, admired for the distinctive black-and-white markings on its caudal fin and the scissor-like motion it shows while swimming. Its graceful movement, peaceful temperament, and lively group behavior make it especially attractive in planted or open-layout aquariums, where a group can display its natural sense of rhythm and spacious swimming style. When keeping Rasbora trilineata in captivity, it is important to provide ample swimming space, maintain stable and clean water conditions, and choose calm tankmates of similar temperament, as a balanced environment allows this elegant species to remain healthy and show its best appearance.
