The males of this species are brighter coloured than the females. They have vivid yellow fin tips.

They do well with other active peaceful species. Will attempt to school with similar sized fish such as Zebra Danios. Are very active fish which may bother slower moving fish such as Angelfish or Gouramis. Should be kept in a ratio similar to livebearers with more females than males.
