Oreichthys cosuatis is a small (~3.2"/8 cm TL) cyprinid fish found in India and Bangladesh. It is also reported from Thailand and Myanmar.
They are strictly freshwater, and are found in ditches, ponds, streams and canals .
In an aquarium, they are generally peaceful, and tend not to bother other fishes, even those much smaller than they are. They prefer cooler water (76oF/24.4oC at most, although higher temps are tolerated in the short term providing oxygen levels do not drop).
