Rummy Nose Tetra

A bright red head and a boldly patterned tail are the standout features of this very popular community fish. Best seen as a school in a planted aquarium with a dark background. Rummynose prefer soft slightly acidic water, their colour may appear washed out if kept in hard water or if the pH is high. All standard foods eaten, but they certainly appreciate occasional feedings of live or frozen foods. Usually grows to 4.5cm.
