Lisa Sharp –
The Blue (Purple) Emperor Tetra is stunning in the tank. The color shift from blue to purple in different lighting is beautiful. It’s very calm and doesn’t bother other fish. I’ve had it for three months and it’s still active and healthy.

I added this tetra to my 20-gallon community tank. It blends well with the other fish and looks elegant. The silver and purple scales catch the light nicely. A nice addition to any aquarium.
