Boesemani Rainbow Fish (Melanotaenia boesemani)

Boesemani Rainbowfish are one of the most recognizable rainbowfish in the hobby. They are active, constantly moving, and become absolutely stunning as they mature, especially males, with the classic blue/purple front half and bright orange/yellow rear half. In a group, they bring a lot of movement and color to larger planted and display aquariums.

Why Hobbyists Love Boesemani Rainbowfish

• Brilliant adult coloration, especially mature males

• Active schooling behavior that brings life to larger tanks

• Great display fish for planted/community setups

• Hardy and rewarding when kept in proper groups

• Excellent choice for hobbyists wanting a larger rainbowfish species
