Welcome the colorful display of Paracheirodon Innesi, known as the Neon Tetra. Originating from the tropical waters of South America, this tiny tetra delights with its electric glow and lively behavior, making it a vibrant addition to your aquarium.
Ideal Water Parameters:
- Temperature: 22-26°C.
- pH: 5.0-7.0.
- Water Hardness: 2-10 dH.
Maximum Size: Despite its small size, the Neon Tetra is large in presence, reaching about 3 centimeters. Its compact size makes it perfect for aquariums of various dimensions.
Sexual Dimorphism: Females are slightly larger than males and have a rounder body shape. Males have a more streamlined body shape.
Feeding Recommendation: Maintain your Neon Tetra's vitality with a varied diet.
We recommend using high-quality pellets, with Hikari Micro Pellets being an excellent choice, occasionally supplemented with frozen foods such as mosquito larvae or daphnia to promote vibrant colors and robust health.
Although similar, Neon Tetras (Paracheirodon innesi) and Cardinal Tetras (Paracheirodon axelrodi) differ in fin colors and lateral pattern. The Neon Tetra displays a half red/blue line running the length of its body, while the Cardinal Tetra has a more intense and distinct red line.
Importance of Schooling: To recreate their natural habitat and promote natural behaviors, we recommend keeping Neon Tetras in schools of more than 10 individuals. This not only reduces stress but also enhances their collective beauty.
