   They can be very colorful with bright blues, reds and oranges to a dull plain tan.

   If you want a pond, but without the larger Koi, then Minnows are a great substitute, great breeders, and love to eat insects around the pond.If you do keep them in a pond with Koi or other fish, careful as your minnows may just end up on their dinner table!

   These Minnows are great and forgiving for the community indoor aquarium and beginner keeper. Since their temperture requirements are so varied, they are extremely forgiving fish.
