Daisy's Ricefish (Oryzias woworae)

Quarantined ricefish for carefully planned freshwater aquariums in Canada.

Daisy's Ricefish is a small, peaceful ricefish known for its blue body tones, red-orange fin accents, and elegant surface activity. It is a beautiful choice for mature planted nano and desktop aquariums.

Why This Fish Stands Out

• Small colourful ricefish for planted nano aquariums
• Peaceful group fish with attractive blue and red-orange accents
• Excellent surface activity for calm tanks

Aquarium Setup & Behaviour

Use a mature planted aquarium with stable water, floating cover, gentle flow, and a secure lid.

Best kept in a group. Group keeping improves confidence and display.

Feeding

Feed small flakes, micro-pellets, and frozen/live micro foods.

Natural Colour & Livestock Integrity

Colour comes from natural species traits and healthy conditioning. No hormones are used to artificially enhance colour.

Topick Aquarium Livestock Standard

All fish at Topick Aquarium are carefully quarantined and conditioned to our stable local tap water before sale. Some oddball and specialty species still have very specific long-term needs, so we recommend matching each fish to the right aquarium size, diet, tankmates, and maintenance routine before purchase.
