The Boeseman's Rainbowfish is different in colour from most other rainbowfish. It is half orange-red at the rear and iridescent half bluish-grey at the front. The colour deepens and intensifies at different times, which might be a sign of health or the mating season. The colour is generally more intense at night. Its body is compressed flat with spiny dorsal (back) fins and a slightly forked tail. | | | |
