🔥 Amazon Redtail Tetra – Vibrant & Active Schooling Fish

The Amazon Redtail Tetra (Aphycocharax dentatus) is a striking addition to any freshwater aquarium. With its metallic silver body and bright red tail, this fast-moving tetra adds excitement and motion to your community tank. Originally found in the Amazon Basin, it’s known for its hardiness and energetic nature.

These fish are best kept in groups of 6 or more and do well in planted aquariums with open swimming space. While peaceful with most tankmates, they can show mild fin-nipping tendencies, so avoid housing with slow-moving long-finned fish.
