Orange Medaka Ricefish

To protect our animals and to ensure they get to our customers healthy, we will only ship orders with Nano Fish via UPS Next Day Air.

Known for their stunning coloration, peaceful temperament, and adaptability, these hardy little fish are a favorite among both beginner and experienced aquarists. Native to Japan, Orange Medaka Ricefish thrive in a wide range of conditions and can even be kept outdoors year-round in mild climates. Their coloration insensifies under natural sunlight and they have fun personalities.

These fish are adult shrimp-safe, however, we recommend having sufficient plants or hiding spots for aquariums with both Orange Medaka Ricefish and freshwater shrimp. 

Orange Medaka Ricefish are pretty easy to care as long as they are introduced to a mature, cycled tank. They can acclimate to a wide range of parameters.  The following are our water parameters we keep them at:

Our Tank Water Parameters

PH: 7.2 to 7.5
GH: 7 to 8
KH: 3 to 4
TDS: 180 to 250

We feed them a mix of frozen brine shrimp, frozen daphnia and high-quality flake food.
