The Long fin white cloud is a great addition to any aquarium, planted or un-planted. The long fin has the same appearance as the regular white cloud except that the adults fins are elongated. This difference makes them appear flashier and more desirable to hobbyists. The long fin white cloud has great color contrast displaying white to gold coloration with red coloration on its fins and tail. The color stands out even more then the regular white cloud. They show schooling behavior in small groups, this behavior is very evident in larger groups of 10 or more.
The white cloud is great for small tanks from 10 gallons and up.
The white cloud minnow can reach a size of 1.5 inches and is a great community and beginner fish do to its adaptability to a large range of water parameters. We would not recommend keeping them with shrimp if trying to grow your colony as they can target baby shrimp easily.
The scientific name for the White Cloud Minnow is: Tanichthys albonubes "Long Fin"
We feed our White Clouds a mix of frozen foods including daphnia, baby brine and cyclops. We occasionally feed them Northfin Veggie. Will accept live foods if prepared.
