I have been interested in getting some Boraras Brigittae but they are extremely expensive here and I was wondering how easy to keep are they?

I have been breeding them for some time. They are very easy to keep, provided you have the right setup.

Thanks cup, I know these aren't real warm water fish, so I would place a tank somewhere which escapes most of the summer heat but sometimes temps are high where ever you are. What would you estimate to be their upper level of heat tolerance?

Over the summer, the tank peaked at like 84, and they did pretty badly. I would say something around 80 is as high as I would keep them.
