Lambchop Rasbora
Trigonostigma espei
Family: Cyprinidae
📍 Mekong & Chao Phraya, Southeast Asia
The lambchop rasbora has a slimmer body than the harlequin rasbora with a characteristically narrow, wedge-shaped black mark on the rear half. Peaceful and undemanding, it is ideal for nano planted tanks and pairs beautifully with shrimp.
