These peaceful schooling fish come from the coastal floodplains of South America and have become a very popular aquarium fish species. These fish are beautiful and have their very own natural protection system. They secrete an enzyme called Guanin from their scales to protect the fish from skin parasites while giving the fish its distinctive golden color. These are very shy fish if they are not kept in large numbers their colour will fade
