Black Neon Tetras (Hyphessobrycon Herbertaxelrodi) have been in a hobby for a while but they are still one of the more popular nano fish due to their unique coloration and schooling behavior. They have a neon stripe that runs down their body that stands out in any aquarium. These stunning fish are are relatively small and can grow to a a max size at about 1.5 inch which makes them perfect for a planted nano aquarium.
Black Neon Tetras are pretty easy to care as long as they are introduced to a mature, cycled tank. They can acclimate to a wide range of parameters. The following are our water parameters we keep them at:
