My new Rainbow.

Hi i got a Banded Rainbow today, its only about 2" long but you can see the band down its side and the tail and fins are starting to turn red .The man in the shop told me it was a young red but i new it was not so i looked on the web and found out it was a banded rainbow ,i think it will look like this one in the picture but cant be sure because there are over 20 different colour types ,it depends on which river they come from .

Re: My new Rainbow.

Thanks very much they are cool fish ,i like them so much i went and got another one but this one is a different colour its got the red tail and band but its more blue and green .This is what i love about rainbows when you get them they look very bland but as they grow they start to show there colours then they look amazing well worth the wait ,when they get bigger i will post some pictures .

Re: My new Rainbow.

I agree with you rainbow fish are some of my favorite fish. I currently have 1 red, 2 bosemani, 2 parkinsonis, all mixed in my community tank. I've had several others over the years, and am always looking out for new ones. My LFS seems to agree with me, as they stock them and often get new varieties in.

I love your fish, do post pictures when you can.
