Petco Freshwater Fish Golden Neon Tetra, (Paracheirodon innesi)
Description
The Golden Neon Tetra is a small, peaceful freshwater fish known for its shimmering golden-yellow body accented by a subtle iridescent blue lateral stripe. Thriving in groups of six or more, they are best housed in aquariums of 15-20 gallons or larger with stable, well-filtered water and gentle flow. Preferring slightly acidic to neutral water, Golden Neon Tetras feel most secure in planted tanks that provide soft cover and open swimming areas. Calm, social, and community-friendly, they coexist well with other small, non-aggressive species. Hardy and easy to feed, they readily accept flakes, micro-pellets, and frozen foods, making them a vibrant, graceful addition to freshwater aquariums.
