Flame Back Bleeding Heart Tetra (hyphessobrycon Pyrrhonotus) Med-Large (Aquarium Glaser)

Description

Flameback Bleeding Heart Tetra (Hyphessobrycon pyrrhonotus) is a captivating freshwater fish that adds a fiery touch to aquariums. Let’s explore its fascinating features:

  1. Appearance: These tetras boast attractive pink coloration with a heart-shaped marking on their sides, complemented by red eyes. An iridescent red stripe extends across their dorsal surface, leading to an extended black dorsal fin edged in white. At a maximum size of approximately 6 cm (about 2.4 inches), they’re compact yet eye-catching! 🌟🐠
  1. Origin: Found in the middle Rio Negro in Brazil, the Flameback Bleeding Heart Tetra inhabits soft, acidic blackwater creeks and shallows, in the wild it typically forms large shoals, creating a mesmerizing display of colur and movement. 
  1. Habitat: In its natural habitat, this species swims in small groups among submerged woody structures such as roots, fallen branches, and overhanging riparian vegetation. The rio Ereré, where it resides, is a narrow river with white sand substrates and patches of leaf litter. Shallow zones (30-90 cm deep) suit their preferences. Imagine these little flames dancing among aquatic plants! 🔥🌿
  1. Aquarium Setup: To showcase their best colors, provide a well-furnished aquarium with live plants. Consider a soft, sandy substrate, wood roots, and branches to create plenty of shady spots. Dried leaf litter adds a natural touch and encourages beneficial microbe colonies as it decomposes. A tank with base dimensions of 75 cm x 30 cm or equivalent is suitable. Don’t forget a good filtration system! 🌊🌱
