Glowlight Tetra Aquarium Care Guide

Keeping Glowlight Tetra in an aquarium requires the right conditions.

Aquarium Information

• Care level: beginner
• Temperament: peaceful
• Diet: omnivore
• Minimum tank size: 60 liters (15 gallons) for a small school
• Compatibility: Excellent for community tanks with other peaceful, similarly sized fish such as other small tetras, rasboras, corydoras, and dwarf cichlids. Avoid housing with large or aggressive species that may prey on them.
