Blood Tetra
Hyphessobrycon callistus
| HABITS |
|
Sadly, these fish are not so commonly found in your aquarium store; however, if you do see them and they are in good colour, they will say 'Buy Me'. These peaceful community fish love to swim in groups in the middle of the aquarium. Their favourite abode would be a planted aquarium with lots of swimming room. They show their best colour when they are in spawning condition. If you keep the water just perfect and feed them the sera menu, you have got yourself another little gem.
