Congo Tetra ML

Bring a magnificent and elegant presence to your aquarium with the Congo Tetra ML. This medium-large tetra is a true jewel of the freshwater world, known for its stunning, iridescent scales that shimmer with a beautiful array of colors, including vibrant blue, red, gold, and green. The males are particularly spectacular, with their large, flowing dorsal and caudal fins that create a graceful, elegant silhouette as they glide through the water.

The Congo Tetra ML is a peaceful and social fish that thrives in groups. Their tranquil movements and striking coloration make them an ideal centerpiece for a larger community tank. They are best kept with other peaceful, similarly-sized fish, as their delicate fins can be a target for fin-nippers.

Diet

For their diet, Congo Tetras are not picky eaters and will readily accept a varied diet. Feed them a mix of high-quality flake food, pellets, and small frozen or live foods like daphnia, bloodworms, or brine shrimp. A balanced diet will help maintain their vibrant colors and overall health. They also appreciate some vegetable matter in their diet, so a spirulina-based food can be a great addition.
