Skull Creek Rainbow 5-6cm

Once considered a species of Melanotaenia maccullochi, the Skull Creek Rainbows (Melanotaenia sahulensis) is a smaller Melanotaenia species that exhibits many horizontal stripes throughout the body. They are yellow in colour with black striping. Most Rainbows show their best colors at sunrise, when the males display their bright fins for potential mates. Having more females than males will allow for proper color displays and avoid any unwanted aggression towards lone females.
