Macrochirichthys macrochirus

Macrochirichthys macrochirus, also known as the giant carp minnow, is notable for its large size and elongated pectoral fin, distinguishing it from other minnows in its habitat. It is a peaceful species suited to large public aquariums or habitat exhibits rather than home aquariums due to its size. Exceptional care must be taken to replicate their natural environment with space for swimming and compatible tank mates.
