Green Fire Tetra Fish

The green fire tetra is one of our favorite fish in the shop, showing greenish-grey coloration with a little red coloration near the tail. It closely resembles fish like Neon tetras and cardinal tetras with a much greener coloration. These fish will generally ship at a size of around an inch and can reach a max size of around 2 inches.

The green fire tetra we sell can be quick to food while feeding, tank mates should be picked with care, they could potentially cause harm to dwarf shrimp so larger tank mates are recommended. The green fire tetra are collected from South America and do well in neutral parameter tanks.
