Glowlight Tetra - Hemigrammus erythrozonus

Glowlight Tetras, sometimes also referred to as Fire Neons, are an attractive and easy to care for small schooling fish. They have a body shape very similar to the common Neon and Cardinal Tetra, but sport an almost glowing iridescent orange bar of color spanning the length of their bodies.    

Care

Glowlight Tetras grow to about 1.5", and should be kept in groups in an aquarium of at least 10 gallons. They're an active mid to top level swimmer, and should be provided with plenty of plants and rocks for hiding to feel most comfortable. As a schooling fish, they must be kept in small groups of 5 or more to feel most comfortable.   

Diet

Glowlight Tetras aren't picky eaters, and will happily accept prepared flake or pellet foods.
