Keeping GloFish Tetra in an aquarium requires the right conditions.

Aquarium Information

  • Care level: beginner
  • Temperament: peaceful
  • Diet: omnivore
  • Minimum tank size: 57 liters (15 gallons)
  • Compatibility: Generally peaceful and can be kept with other similarly sized, non-aggressive community fish. Best kept in schools of 6 or more individuals to reduce nipping behavior and promote natural schooling.
  • Special requirements: Requires a well-filtered aquarium with stable water parameters. While their coloration is visible under normal lighting, a 'black light' (actinic or blue LED) will enhance their fluorescence. Provide ample swimming space and some planted areas for security. Avoid keeping with fin-nipping species or very large, predatory fish.
