Hummingbird Tetra
Characidium fasciatum a.k.a. Peru Darter Tetra, Walking Tetra Size: 3" max pH: 5.5 - 7.5 dH: 2 - 25 Temp: 64 - 81F, Origin: Clear streams in South America from the Rio de la Plata Additives: Black Water Expert found at Aquarium Supplements Food: New Life Spectrum "Small Fish Formula or H20 Stable Wafers" found at Fish Foods Here's another reason why people buy fish from us! This unusual little guy is something you just don't see often. Nope, it's not a common Chinese algae eater, although it may look like one, it's actually a Hummingbird Tetra! A peaceful loner that should be kept either singly, or in a large group of eight or more fish. If kept in groups smaller than about eight, fish can act aggressively. Combine with small to medium-sized fish of upper swimming levels. An inquisitive fish, always investigating the tank floor. Yes, these will nibble on algae!!! Breeding the Hummingbird is fairly easy. A pair spawns on the bottom, laying side to side. The parents should be removed from the tank after the eggs are laid. The 150 eggs fall between rocks and hatch after 30 to 40 hours. The fry have very small mouths and should be raised on food tablets, infusoria, and Artemia. A robust species, that is suitable for most community tanks! Size at shipping: about 1.5 - 2" SHIPS GREAT!
