Hyphessobrycon myrmex 2.5-3cm

These wild-caught Fire Ant Tetras thrive in soft, slightly acidic water with temperatures between 24–28°C. They are social fish and should be kept in groups of at least 6–8 to display natural behavior and reduce stress. Their small size makes them perfect for nano and medium aquariums. These tetras feed readily on high-quality flake food, micro pellets, and small live or frozen foods such as daphnia and brine shrimp. Regular feeding and stable water conditions will enhance their coloration and vitality. Ideal tank mates include other small tetras, rasboras, dwarf corydoras, and peaceful invertebrates. Avoid housing with large or aggressive fish. Dense aquatic plants provide shelter and help maintain water quality, creating a natural environment where these fish flourish.
