Java fern is supposed to be not very tastey. I have it in my goldfish tank now and they haven't touched it as of yet... not sure what a red cloud is...

a red cloud is a small (1 inch) fish with a silvery stripe running from its head to its tail on both sides of its body and it has a red splotch (it starts at the base of the tail and looks like its sort of exploding to the other end of its tail)the same goes for its dorsal finand the tips of its other fins
theyre also called clouds but i dont know its scientific name

Ahhh, I call them White Cloud Mountain Minnows. They're pretty huh! I have a few in my daughter's fire belly toad tank. Very easy to breed too! :)
