Dario dario (HAMILTON, 1822)

Scarlet Badis

March 13th, 2012 — 1:18pm

This species is among the more well-known badids in the aquarium hobby, and is a popular choice for ‘nano’ aquaria since it is among the smallest percoid fishes known.

It is easily told apart from congeners since it is the only species in which males possess a series of seven iridescent blue vertical bars on the flanks.
