Green Neon Tetra

Main
Fish Info Main

The Green Neon Tetra is much like the Reg neon and blue neon, the tank conditions are alike and they thrive with reg neon tetra, black neon, blue neon and the cardinal tetra to make a wonder colorful tank! With Green Neons by themselves or with others the color is an eye catcher! I am sure the English will provide these fish, but as for now you can only get them in Japan for 7.99 for 10.

Easy Breeding and easy keep have to order them from Himeya inc
