Tetra Glowlight

The Glowlight Tetra is a really nice looking tetra with an orange-red stripe that runs the length of its semi-transparent body. Proper aquarium lighting levels with a dark fish tank bottom can help enhance the colors of these tetras. They are slightly smaller than other commonly available tetras and should be kept with similar sized and non-aggressive species.

They will do really well in an aquarium with live aquarium plants. Like other small tetras, such as the Neon tetra, this fish does best in schools (shoal) of 5 or more. Do not keep them with larger species that could potentially eat them. Even if you keep them in schools they can still be a little shy, keeping a low profile most of the time.
