Скачать или смотреть Red Congo Tetra (Alestopetersius brichardi)

Somewhat of a rarity, we have some Red Congo Tetra (Alestopetersius brichardi) for sale today. These fish have unbelievable colours, depending on the light and the position of the fish and mature into brighter colours.

This species will do well in planted aquaria but ideally the aquarium should ideally be designed to resemble a flowing stream or river with a substrate of variably-sized rocks, sand, fine gravel, and some larger water-worn boulders. Driftwood roots and branches can also be used but be sure to leave plenty of open swimming space. Lively and somewhat skittish but generally peaceful making it an ideal for the larger community aquarium.

Adult males are more colourful than females and possess extended dorsal, ventral, anal and caudal fins, including the median rays in the latter, while nuptial individuals become bright reddish.

Temperature: 20 – 28 °C
pH: 5.0 – 7.0
Hardness: 18 – 179 ppm
