The Glowlight Tetra is a very popular freshwater tetra, which originally came from the clear water streams of South America. This fish has a clear body with a bright neon red stripe running from the nose into the tail. When the lights on the aquarium are dimmed, the red stripe on the fish can be clearly seen which lends to its name. They are a great addition to any soft water community aquarium. Glowlight Tetras add beauty to a planted aquarium; the plants, in turn, will provide hiding places for the fish. Rocks and driftwood also help to mirror its natural habitat. It thrives in slightly acidic water and will do best when water parameters are kept constant. The Glowlight Tetras are a schooling fish and will do best if kept in odd numbers of 5 or more.
