Description
The Green Neon Tetra is a beautiful, peaceful species is best maintained in groups of 6 or more fish in a softwater aquarium. Tankmates, if desired, should consist of small fish only, and which are of a similar disposition. Green Neon Tetras appreciate rooted and floating plant cover to help diffuse some of the light. Specimens offered for sale in the trade are almost all wild-caught from their natural blackwater environment which is surrounded by overhanging vegetation from the rainforests, hence the need for dappled light to be provided. Peat filtration is highly recommended. May also be seen on sale as the False Neon Tetra.
