Minnows

Minnows are small, hardy freshwater fish that are often chosen for community tanks due to their peaceful nature and adaptability. They are part of the Cyprinidae family, which includes species like White Cloud Mountain Minnows and Rosy Red Minnows. Known for their schooling behavior, minnows thrive in groups and add active movement to the aquarium. They are typically easy to care for, tolerating a wide range of water conditions, making them a popular choice for beginner aquarists. Minnows prefer well-planted tanks with open swimming areas and are compatible with a variety of other peaceful fish, contributing to a balanced and dynamic aquarium environment.
