Candy Cane Tetra (School of 6)

Candy Cane Tetra (School of 6)

The candy cane tetra looks like a cross between the red phantom tetra and bleeding heart tetra. These Venezuelan tetras feature a pink body with white tipped fins and make a terrific looking school.  Now captive bred, these tetras were once rare and hard to find in the hobby. Tetras do best in the aquarium in schools of six or more.
