Ember Tetra (Hyphessobrycon amandae) The Ember Tetra is a small but incredibly vibrant freshwater fish that brings a glowing splash of orange to any aquarium. With its brilliant ember-like coloration and peaceful nature, this species has become a favorite among aquascapers and community tank enthusiasts. When kept in a school, Ember Tetras create a stunning display as their fiery orange bodies move gracefully through plants and hardscape. Native to the slow-moving waters of Brazil, Ember Tetras thrive in planted aquariums where their bright colors contrast beautifully against lush green vegetation. Their small size makes them an excellent choice for nano aquariums, while their active schooling behavior adds life and movement to larger community tanks. A well-planted aquarium helps these fish feel secure and encourages their best coloration. Ember Tetras are peaceful, easy to care for, and highly compatible with other small community fish. They readily accept high-quality flakes, micro pellets, frozen foods, and other prepared diets. Keeping them in groups of at least six, though larger schools are preferred, will promote natural behavior and create a more impressive visual display.
