Glowlight Tetra (Hemigrammus erythrozonus) 2.5cm

Description

Glowlight Tetra (Hemigrammus erythrozonus) is a popular freshwater fish known for its vibrant appearance and ease of care.

Appearance

  • Color: They have a semi-transparent, silvery body with a distinctive reddish-orange stripe running from the head to the tail, resembling the filament of a light bulb
  • Size: They typically grow to about 1.5 inches (4 cm) in length

Habitat and Tank Requirements

  • Origin: Native to the rivers of Guyana in South America
  • Tank Size: A minimum of 10 gallons is recommended
  • Water Parameters: They thrive in water with a pH of 5.8 to 7.5, hardness up to 15 dGH, and temperatures between 74 to 82°F (24 to 28°C)

Behavior and Tank Mates

  • Social: Glowlight Tetras are peaceful, schooling fish. It's best to keep them in groups of at least six
  • Tank Mates: They get along well with other small, peaceful fish like other tetras, barbs, danios, and cory catfish

Diet and Care

  • Diet: They are omnivores and do well on a diet of small foods, including flakes, pellets, and live or frozen foods
  • Lifespan: With proper care, they can live between 2 to 5 years

Breeding

  • Breeding: Glowlight Tetras are egg scatterers. Providing a separate breeding tank with fine-leaved plants can help protect the eggs

Glowlight Tetras are a great choice for both beginners and experienced aquarists due to their hardiness and striking appearance.
