White Cloud Mountain Minnow

The White Cloud Mountain Minnow is a peaceful, hardy freshwater fish perfect for nano tanks and community aquariums. With their shimmering silver bodies, red-tipped fins, and subtle green-gold hues, these active little swimmers add beauty and energy to any setup.

Native to mountain streams in China and Vietnam, White Clouds thrive in cooler water and are a fantastic choice for unheated tanks. They are ideal for beginners and make great companions for shrimp, snails, and other peaceful species.
