Green Neon Tetra (Tank-Bred)
To protect our animals and to ensure they get to our customers healthy, we will only ship orders with Nano Fish via UPS Next Day Air.
This is a unique variation of the popular Neon Tetra. These stunning fish are relatively small and can grow to a maximum size of about 1 inch, making them perfect for a planted nano aquarium.
Like most Tetras, we recommend keeping these fish in groups of 5 or more for them to feel safe in a large school. They will look especially stunning in a planted tank.
These fish are adult shrimp-safe, however, we recommend having sufficient plants or hiding spots for aquariums with both Neon Tetras and freshwater shrimp.
Neon Tetras are pretty easy to care as long as they are in a well-maintained environment.

I bought a group of Green Neon Tetras for my 10-gallon planted tank. They’ve been active and colorful since arrival. The school looks beautiful, especially with live plants. Easy to maintain and peaceful with the shrimp I already had.

The fish arrived quickly and were in good condition. I kept them in a planted nano tank with hiding spots. They seem healthy and active. Would recommend for small aquariums with shrimp.

Great addition to my aquarium. The green color stands out well in the tank. I kept them in a group of six and they swim together in a nice school. Very easy to care for.
