Espei rasboras are endemic to southeastern Asia, only being found in swamps, marshes, and slow-moving streams in Cambodia and Thailand. They will thrive in well-planted aquariums to allow them to feel secure in their environment. Espei rasboras are a shoaling fish and do best in groups of at least 5 of a kind, though 10 or more is ideal! Espei rasboras won’t try to form a school with fish from another species, but schools of Espei rasboras can live peacefully alongside other species.
