Its darker coloration gives it a completely different appearance from the common Neon Tetra and makes a large school stand out especially well against planted aquariums and darker backgrounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlack Neon Tetras are hardy, active, and beginner-friendly. They tolerate a broader range of aquarium conditions than many small tetras and make excellent community fish when maintained with other peaceful species. They should be kept in a proper school, where they become more confident and display their best natural behavior. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare Level:\u003c\/strong\u003e Easy\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTemperament:\u003c\/strong\u003e Peaceful \/ Active \/ Schooling\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdult Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approximately 1.4–1.6 inches\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Tank Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 15–20 gallons recommended\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTemperature:\u003c\/strong\u003e 72–82°F\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003epH:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5.5–7.5\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDiet:\u003c\/strong\u003e Omnivore\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Group Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8–10 or more \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Setup:\u003c\/strong\u003e A planted aquarium with plenty of open swimming room is ideal. Live plants, driftwood, darker substrate, and slightly subdued lighting can help emphasize their contrasting black and iridescent coloration. Keep Black Neon Tetras with other peaceful community fish and maintain them in a good-sized school. Feed a varied diet of quality flakes or micro pellets supplemented with appropriately sized frozen or live foods such as brine shrimp and daphnia.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease Note:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black Neon Tetras naturally vary in size, sex, and coloration. Juveniles or recently transported fish may initially appear pale, with stronger coloration developing as they mature and settle into the aquarium.
