Blue Eyed Red Neon Rainbow (Glossolepis incisus var. “Blue Eyed Red Neon”) Care Guide: The Blue Eyed Red Neon Rainbow is a vibrant, peaceful rainbowfish variant prized for its striking red body and bright blue eyes. Native to slow-moving, tropical freshwater habitats, it thrives in well-planted aquariums with open swimming areas and moderate water flow. A minimum 20-gallon tank is recommended for a small school of six or more to encourage natural schooling behavior and reduce stress. Optimal water conditions include temperatures of 74–82°F (23–28°C), pH 6.5–7.5, and soft to moderately hard water. These omnivorous fish readily accept high-quality flakes, pellets, and live or frozen foods like brine shrimp and daphnia. Peaceful and active, they make excellent additions to community tanks with other non-aggressive fish of similar size.
