Description
Black Neon Tetras are the black variants of the popular Neon and Cardinal Tetras. Instead of red and blue, the Black Neon Tetra sport a blue line with a black underline. Although not as colourful as its counterparts, they are an alternative choice to those who want something different in their aquarium beside the common Neon and Cardinal Tetra. It’s best to keep them in a school of 6-10 as it will provide them with security and they will behave naturally.
Black Neon Tetras are a peaceful species of fish which makes them perfect to be mixed with other community fishes. Their natural habitat is a blackwater environment, which has fallen branches, leaf litter, and decaying plants. If a blackwater set-up not in your taste, a heavily planted clearwater aquariums will suffice.
They are an omnivorous species and can eat dried foods that are readily available on shelves of pet shops. They can also be given live foods like Daphnia, Moina, brine shrimps, bloodworms, and mosquito larvae.
