Serpae Tetra
The Serpae Tetra (Hyphessobrycon eques) is a species of tetra native to Brazil. They have attractive bright red scales, and an energetic demeanor.
Minimum Tank Size: 15 Gallons
Maximum Fish Size: 2 inches
Water Temperature: 70°F to 90°F
Ideal pH: 5.0 to 8.5
Water Hardness: 5 - 25 dGH
Temperament: Hardy, energetic schooling species. Will likely nip fins of slower fish if kept in too small of a school.
Unless experienced with fish-in cycling, we always suggest cycling an aquarium BEFORE adding fish. Adding fish to a fresh, un-cycled aquarium can kill them rapidly. We offer free water testing at our physical location, and advice via email or call.
