Description

The Red/Blue Colombian Minor Tetra is a bold and colorful freshwater schooling fish known for its shimmering blue body and vivid red fins. This active, fast-swimming species thrives in groups of six or more and is best kept in aquariums of 20 gallons or larger with stable, well-filtered water and ample open swimming space. Adaptable and hardy, they do well in slightly acidic to neutral conditions and benefit from planted tanks that provide structure without restricting movement. While generally peaceful, their energetic nature makes them better suited for similarly sized, active tankmates. Easy to care for and feed, they readily accept flakes, small pellets, and frozen foods, adding striking color contrast and lively activity to freshwater community aquariums.

  • - Temperament: Peaceful
  • - Minimum Tank Size: 20 gallons
  • - Max Size: 2.5"
  • - Diet: Omnivore
