Silvertip Tetra

Bring a flash of fiery color and energy to your aquarium with the Silvertip Tetra L. This large tetra is a true standout, named for its stunning, translucent body that glows with a brilliant orange or reddish-orange hue. Its most defining feature is the beautiful, bright white or silvery tips on its fins, which create a captivating, high-contrast effect as it zips through the water. Its sleek, dynamic shape makes it a lively and eye-catching addition to any community tank.

The Silvertip Tetra is a highly social and active fish. They thrive in schools of six or more, where their vibrant coloration and synchronized movements create a captivating visual display. While generally peaceful, they are known to be "fin-nippers" and can be a bit boisterous, especially towards other long-finned or slow-moving fish. Keeping them in a large group helps to mitigate this behavior by allowing them to establish a pecking order amongst themselves.
