Added a group of five White Widow Tetras to my 10-gallon tank. They swim together beautifully and add vibrant color. The fish are active and calm, and I’ve noticed no fin-nipping despite having a few other small fish.

I kept them in a group of six with other peaceful species. They look stunning and swim in coordinated patterns. Just make sure the tank is well-planted and has enough space for movement.

The fish arrived healthy and are now active in my community tank. I appreciate the clear labeling of the species. They don’t chase or nip, which is a relief after trying other schooling fish.
