Black Emperor Tetra M

Bring a touch of sleek, regal elegance to your aquarium with the Black Emperor Tetra M. This medium-sized tetra is a true showstopper, named for its stunning, deep black body that has a beautiful metallic sheen. A dark horizontal stripe runs through its body, creating a striking contrast that truly makes the black pop. The males are particularly magnificent, with elegant, elongated fins that give them a graceful and majestic silhouette as they glide through the water.

The Black Emperor Tetra M is a peaceful and social fish. It thrives in groups of six or more, where the males will display their fins in a fascinating, harmless show of dominance, adding a unique behavior to your tank. Their calm and non-aggressive nature makes them an excellent tank mate for a wide variety of other community fish.

Diet

For their diet, Black Emperor Tetras are not picky eaters. They will readily accept a varied diet of high-quality flake food and micro-pellets. To maintain their vibrant coloration and overall health, supplement their diet with small frozen or live foods like daphnia, bloodworms, or brine shrimp.
