Descripción de la especie

From the waters of Borneo comes Trigonopoma gracile, a member of the family Cyprinidae. A adaptable species that forgives beginner mistakes more readily than most. It lives on the bottom. Adults reach 4.1–6.1 cm. Singly or in small groups depending on temperament. Give it clean water and room to behave naturally, and it will largely care for itself. Maintain 22–24 °C at pH 6.5–7. A solid choice for a well-planned community tank.
