I recently purchased two fish labeled under Bridgettea Rasboras. They were $.89 a piece and i was only charged for one, what deal huh. Two rare? fish for the price of one. Anyways, ive searched google and some other sites and cant seem to find info on this fish anywere so im providing you guys with a picture so you can help me find out what kind of fish this really is and if its a rare one of not.

Please help me out, Thanks.

I did a quick search too. All I found is that the Rasbora brigittae is the mosquito fish, which doesn't look like your picture at all.

I looked at a lot of rasbora pics, hoping he was something unexotic, but found nothing. I guess there is a possibility he is a cross.

They're nice looking fish!

Maybe someone else will know more.

Great news that you found out what they are! It still sounds like you got a bargain, if they are a new import. Although I saw that it prefers a colder tank.
