Chili Rasboras (Boraras brigittae) are popular, micro-sized freshwater fish celebrated for their intense fiery red coloration and small footprint in planted aquariums.
Appearance: Features a brilliant crimson body accented by a dark, metallic stripe along the side and red markings on the fins.
 Size: Extremely small, growing to only 0.5–0.7 inches (1.3–1.8 cm) max.
 Behavior: Shy, timid, and tightly schooling fish that must be kept in groups of 8–10 or more to feel safe and show their best colors.
 Care: Thrives in soft, slightly acidic water (pH 5.0–7.0) with warm temperatures (68–82°F / 20–28°C), gentle filtration, and dense live plants with dark substrate.
