Bring a touch of regal elegance to your home aquarium with the Imperial Lapis Tetra. Named for its striking resemblance to the deep blue of lapis lazuli, this captivating tetra boasts a shimmering, intense blue coloration that will instantly draw the eye. Accented with subtle highlights and a graceful body shape, the Imperial Lapis Tetra adds both vibrant color and peaceful movement to any community tank.

These tetras are not only beautiful but also relatively hardy and peaceful, making them an excellent choice for both beginner and experienced aquarists. They thrive in planted tanks with soft, slightly acidic water and appreciate the company of their own kind, often displaying their most stunning colors when kept in small groups.
