The Red Muzel Tetras arrived quickly and looked vibrant in the packaging. I kept them in a planted tank with other tetras and they’ve been active and colorful since day one. Easy to maintain and very peaceful in the group.

I was excited to get these rare fish. They acclimated well to my tank and have been swimming in a school of five. The color is bright and they seem healthy after a few weeks.

Great addition to my community tank. The fish are active, colorful, and don’t stress other species. I keep them in a group of six and they look stunning in a planted setup.
