Thank you, Kevin – that’s what I had in mind, and it seems that several keepers made good experiences in keeping Rasboras/ Boraras and paros together.
I think about two aspects:
– How many Rasboras can I keep in such a small tank as recommended for paros? For example, my 27 liter tank? Rasboras like to live in small flocks, one shouldn’t keep too few of them. But how many are appropriate?
– I keep 8 Boraras maculatus together with a pair of Badis kanabos (and their fry) in a 54 liter tank. The Badis are slow feeders, too – they have to observe an object for a while to be sure that it’s alive and edible. The Rasboras are very fast and eager to feed. The combination Boraras/ Badis works well because of the differences in food size – the Boraras eat only small food, the larger remains for the Badis. But as I hear, paros also eat very small food, and very slowly. What about the food competition in keeping Parosphromenus and Boraras together?
