Tetras Fish in Enfield, Greater London

Tetras are generally easy to care for but can require specific conditions such as stable tropical water temperatures with a heater, proper water parameters, and secure tanks to prevent jumping; sensitivity to water changes and social needs make them somewhat challenging without proper care.

While subjective, cardinal tetras are widely regarded as the prettiest due to their vibrant red and blue colours, closely followed by neon tetras which are also admired for their bright iridescent markings.

Most tetras are peaceful and non-aggressive, ideal for community aquariums; however, some species may occasionally nip fins if the male-to-female ratio is unbalanced or if kept in too small numbers.
