Description
The Diamond Tetra is a peaceful shoaling species that is best maintained in groups of 6 or more in the mature community aquarium. The tank should be well planted with both rooted and floating species, and furnished with dark decor in order to best show off the glittering iridescence of this species. Sensitive to a build up of nitrates, water quality must be kept to high standards at all times. Juveniles are all too often overlooked in aquatics stores, due to their dull colouration. A large shoal of adult Diamond Tetras is a truly stunning sight – a group of youngsters is well worth investing in.
