These tetras are named for their shimmering, iridescent scales that sparkle like diamonds, especially under good lighting[^1^](https:\/\/www.fishlaboratory.com\/fish\/diamond-tetra\/)[^2^](https:\/\/www.seriouslyfish.com\/species\/moenkhausia-pittieri\/).\n\n### Key Characteristics:\n- **Size**: They typically grow to about 2.4 inches (6 cm) in length[^2^](https:\/\/www.seriouslyfish.com\/species\/moenkhausia-pittieri\/).\n- **Water Conditions**: They thrive in water temperatures between 72-82°F (22-28°C) and a pH range of 5.5 to 7.5[^1^](https:\/\/www.fishlaboratory.com\/fish\/diamond-tetra\/)[^2^](https:\/\/www.seriouslyfish.com\/species\/moenkhausia-pittieri\/).\n- **Diet**: Diamond Tetras are omnivores and will eat a variety of foods, including flakes, granules, and small live or frozen foods like bloodworms and brine shrimp[^2^](https:\/\/www.seriouslyfish.com\/species\/moenkhausia-pittieri\/).\n- **Behavior**: They are peaceful and do well in community tanks with other non-aggressive fish[^2^](https:\/\/www.seriouslyfish.com\/species\/moenkhausia-pittieri\/).\n\n### Habitat:\nIn their natural habitat, Diamond Tetras are found in shallow, vegetated waters. They prefer environments with plenty of plants and subdued lighting[^2^](https:\/\/www.seriouslyfish.com\/species\/moenkhausia-pittieri\/). In an aquarium, they look best in a well-planted tank with a soft substrate and some driftwood or roots to mimic their natural surroundings[^2^](https:\/\/www.seriouslyfish.com\/species\/moenkhausia-pittieri\/).\n\n### Care Tips:\n- **Tank Size**: A small group of Diamond Tetras can be kept in a tank of at least 15 gallons, but a larger tank is preferable to give them more space to swim[^1^](https:\/\/www.fishlaboratory.com\/fish\/diamond-tetra\/).\n- **Water Quality**: Regular water changes and good filtration are important to maintain water quality and keep these fish healthy[^2^](https:\/\/www.seriouslyfish.com\/species\/moenkhausia-pittieri\/).\n\nHave you kept Diamond Tetras before, or are you planning to add them to your aquarium?\" tabindex=\"0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"ac-container ac-adaptiveCard\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"ac-textBlock\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMoenkhausia cosmops\u003c\/strong\u003e, also known as \u003cstrong\u003eBario cosmops\u003c\/strong\u003e, is a small, vividly colored freshwater tetra native to Brazil. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3 id=\"speciesoverview\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecies Overview\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScientific Name\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cem\u003eMoenkhausia cosmops\u003c\/em\u003e (now often classified under \u003cem\u003eBario cosmops\u003c\/em\u003e)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFamily\u003c\/strong\u003e: Characidae (Tetras)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tributaries of the upper Rio Sepotuba (Paraguai basin) and Rio Juruena (Tapajós basin), Brazil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3 id=\"sizelifespan\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize \u0026amp;
