    Danionella dracula, a species from cyprinid family which indigenous to Burma. Tiny little fish which max at 0.6 inch or 17mm.

    It is named dracula fish due to it's unusual 'fangs' of the male. However, they dont suck blood though, they accepts Tetra Bits quite readily, but prefer live foods such as daphnia, moina, artemia and other smaller live food.

    17mm maximum... but the one in SLS are smaller.
    I tried today, it's really hard to get close up. Here's some shots of closer look.





    This was 100% zoom


    Anyway, i couldn't find the 'fang' of any of the dracula... perhaps when they grow bigger? hmmm....
