The Glowlight Tetra is a small, peaceful freshwater fish popular in home aquariums. It typically grows to about 1.5 inches long and is known for its striking, glowing orange-red stripe that runs horizontally along its body from the nose to the tail. This bright stripe stands out against its translucent silver body, making it quite eye-catching. Glowlight Tetras are schooling fish, so they thrive best when kept in groups of six or more. They prefer well-planted tanks with soft, slightly acidic water and a temperature range around 74-82°F (23-28°C). They are peaceful and get along well with other small, non-aggressive fish. Their diet includes flake food, small pellets, and live or frozen foods like brine shrimp or daphnia.
