Hyphessobrycon peruvianus – Peruvian Tetra
Hyphessobrycon peruvianus – Peruvian Tetra is a small, peaceful schooling fish that you can keep together with other characins. The aquarium should be planted densely with fine-leaved plants. A dark substrate and a dimmed light by using floating plants bring out the colors of the fish. A regular water change with soft, acidic water is recommended.
Diet
Small live food should be given as food. Frozen and dry food are accepted as well. Consider the size of the food with young fish as they have tiny mouths.
