Tetras are small, schooling fish that come in a rainbow of colors. They really bring life to an aquarium with their bright colors and active swimming habits. There are many different types of tetras, the most popular being the neon tetra, which has a bright red stripe running through its body. Tetras are easy to care for and like to be in groups, so you can get several in one tank and watch them swim together peacefully. They’re not aggressive or territorial, so they make good community tank mates.
