 The Emperor Tetra is a great fish
for a community aquarium. If you keep them with other peaceful
tropical fish in your fish tank you should have tetra fish that
last for many years to come. You will have the best success with
this tetra if you keep a good flow of water and plenty of plants
in the fish tank. Regular partial water changes are also needed
for a good healthy aquarium.
Emperor Tetra
Breeding: To entice the Emperor Tetra to
spawn, increase your aquarium water temperature to about 79F or
80F, add some moss to the bottom of the tank, subdue the
lighting and make sure the water is somewhat soft. After
spawning has occurred, remove the parents so they don't eat the
eggs. The fry should hatch in a few days.
