Temperament: Very peaceful, must be protected from larger agressive fish
Adult Size: up to 2 in (5cm) Minimum Tank Size: 2 gallon
Feeding: Standard aquarium fare
Breeding: Egglayer, easily bred, just provide some hiding cover for newborn fry. White Clouds can be kept outside in a small garden pool or large tub in the Summer, thousands of fry can be produced this natural way.
Comment added by Gary Pagura: I apparently left a few straggler White Clouds in my pond last fall - THEY WINTERED OVER! We had a pretty bad one too - it was iced over several times. I am not a novice and I am quite sure about the species. Zone 6 - NEW YORK
