Threadfin Rainbowfish

Background Info

Threadfin Rainbowfish are beautiful multicolored fish. The males have long threads that extend from their top and bottom fins. They have large eyes, a black or silver band on their side that runs along the middle scale rows, a forked mouth, and two dorsal fins. Their colors range from green and yellow to red and blue. They are all brightly colored, and the colors extend to their fins.

 

These fish love to live in tanks that have several plants and decorations. These fish are native to New Guinea and Australia, living in rivers and streams where there is a lot of plant life in the water. Having a lot of plants in the tank will make the Threadfin Rainbowfish feel at home.

 

These fish usually like gravel in the bottom of their tanks. Usually, their colors pop more when their tanks have darker colors of pebbles and rocks. Threadfin Rainbowfish are relatively adaptable and will adjust well to life in their new tank. However, they are sensitive to changes in their water. To keep them happy, make sure the amount and pH levels of their water remain constant.

 

Threadfin Rainbowfish are on the smaller side, only reaching about two inches in length at most. Despite this, they should still be in large tanks. You should only have one fish per gallon of water in your tank to give them enough room to be happy and healthy.

Feeds and Feeding

Threadfin Rainbowfish are omnivores, meaning they will eat just about anything. They like flake/pellet food or small frozen or live foods. One thing to consider is that even though these fish have wide mouths, they have fairly narrow throats. Make sure you are feeding your Threadfin Rainbowfish small foods so they don’t choke and can swallow their food.

Tankmates

Threadfin Rainbowfish are peaceful schooling fish. If you would like to add these fish to your tank, you should get a few so they can school together. They are peaceful, so they will get along with any non-aggressive fish. Small schooling fish, livebearers, other small rainbowfish, small catfish, gudgeons, and garra all make great tankmates for Threadfin Rainbowfish.

We will offer replacement fish for any losses, but do not offer refunds at this time.

FAQ

"The fish I received do not look like the fish in thepicture. Why is this?"

-         We typically take photographs of one or two fish when we initially get them in. Since we have a large quantity of most of the various species of fish, it would be understandably impossible to provide a picture ofevery individual fish with a specific species. For some of our more rare orlarger fish, the picture listed may be the actual fish that you are receiving.If this is the case, it will be designated by ?WYSIWYG?, meaning ?what you see,is what you get?.

"What happens if my fish arrive dead?"

-         While this is a rare occurrence, it can and willhappen from time to time. Fish are live animals and we cannot ensure that everyone will arrive alive or remain alive. We do ask that if your fisharrives dead (DOA), submit a picture of the deceased fish that is in the bag.We will work quickly with you to resolve the problem. We will offer replacement fish for any losses, but do not offer refunds at this time. We will reship any replacement fish at the buyer's expense. If you put the fish in your tank and it dies or is not acting properly, please contact us,  with pictures, within 24 hours. We will again, do everything in our power to resolvethe issue and ensure that you have a great experience with these fish.

"What if I'm not home when the fish arrive?"

-         We will always provide you with a tracking number. While the fish are packaged to survive about 72+ hours within the shipping containers, we do ask that you make arrangements to arrive home to inspect your fish as soon as possible after they are delivered to your home. Itis always suggested to provide an area for the delivery person to place the boxthat is out of direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.

"What do I do with my fish once I've unpacked them?"

-         Like you would with any new fish, let the entire bag float in your tank for 15-30 minutes. This allows the temperature withinthe bag to adjust to the same as your tank and will reduce temperature shock onthe fish. After this time, you can add all of the fish and water that is in thebag into your tank. The products used within the water for shipping will notharm any existing fish within your tank and actually makes the transition foryour new fish a bit easier. After this, expect your new fish to take a few daysto become fully adjusted, this includes hiding, floating at the top, sinking tothe bottom, and not eating. After a few days, your new fish should be acting aswimming like they normally would. At this point, enjoy your aquarium!

"I want to return my new fish because x,y,z?"

-         Unfortunately, we are unable to accept returns.We do recommend contacting us via email with yourorder number and as much information as possible. We will try to assist you inresolving whatever the issue may be.
