In theory I know rainbow shiners (Notropis chrosomus) exist and yes, they are very pretty. Especially in breeding colours.
But every now and again I’ll come across a video or picture and just catch my breath. I mean, look at them. That’s hardly fair that they look like that and exist on this planet.
I mean… just look at them!
Holy shit!
They’re like little gem-encrusted neon blips of pure whimsy.
