Medaka Rice Fish (Oryzias latipes) are peaceful freshwater fish often enjoyed from a top-down view. They are hardy—even in cooler water temperatures—and active swimmers, making them a popular pick for adding personality and life to indoor ponds, patio ponds, and planted tubs. Medakas are a great beginner fish. They have a calm temperament, low bioload, and tolerance for a range of temperatures and water parameters. They come in a variety of colors that shimmer beautifully in a planted aquarium or paludarium tank. They are social and will be happiest when kept in a group of at least six per 10 gallons of water volume.

Gentle flow is preferred, and while not required, having a lid or plenty of floating aquatic plants can help provide extra cover and prevent jumping. Japanese Rice Fish are omnivorous and will readily accept quality flake, pellet, live, and frozen foods — and, as an added bonus, they will eat any mosquito larvae they find, making them both lovely and useful for outdoor planted tanks or ponds!

Tank size recommendation: 10G per school of 6 Rice Fish
If using tap, be sure to use a dechlorinator to ensure safety for your livestock.
