Black Line Tail Tetra Moenkhausia Costae 3cm

Overview: The Black Line Tail Tetra, known scientifically as Moenkhausia costae, is a striking freshwater fish cherished for its elegant appearance and peaceful demeanor. Its distinctive black tail fin against a shimmering silver body makes it a captivating addition to any community aquarium.

Origin: Originating from South America, particularly in the river basins of Brazil, these tetras thrive in environments with slow-moving waters and densely vegetated areas.

Feeding: Omnivorous by nature, they readily accept a varied diet consisting of high-quality flakes, pellets, live, or frozen foods such as bloodworms, daphnia, and brine shrimp.

Tank Mates: Known for their peaceful temperament, Black Line Tail Tetras coexist harmoniously with other peaceful community fish like other tetras, rasboras, peaceful dwarf cichlids, and small catfish species.

Aggression: These tetras are non-aggressive, making them ideal inhabitants for community tanks. They thrive in groups and display their best behavior in a well-populated environment.

Experience Level: Suitable for aquarists of various experience levels, including beginners. However, proper water parameters and maintenance are essential for their well-being.

Water Parameters: Optimal conditions include a pH range of 6.0 to 7.5, water temperature between 72°F to 78°F (22°C to 26°C), and moderately soft to slightly hard water.
