3. Habitat My animal lives mostly in aquariums. They really don’t have to make adaptions because they are mostly found in hot tropical places. They travel in schools of fish. They migrate.
4. FOOD They need smaller foods than most fishes as they have a throat with a comparatively small diameter. They are omnivorous, so they'll take live foods and standard foods for tropical community fishes. My fish is an omnivore.
5. Protection They really don’t have to protect themselves because they mostly live in aquariums, or they live up close to shore in hot places.
6. Characteristics They are born in eggs. Usually 10 to 20 eggs. The young are called Dwarf neon rainbow fish. A unique feature is they are very colorful. They are fascinating because they are the fourth smallest fish.
