The Buenos Aires Tetra (Hyphessobrycon anisitsi) is a vibrant freshwater species with shimmering silver bodies and eye-catching red fins. These energetic fish are known for their adaptability and resilience, making them ideal for aquarists at any level. Their lively swimming and bold colours bring movement and charm to community tanks, ensuring they stand out in any setup.
While generally peaceful, Buenos Aires Tetras can show semi-aggressive behaviour, especially in small groups or crowded tanks. They may nip the fins of slow-moving or long-finned tank mates. To minimize this, keep them in schools of six or more, as they feel more secure and less likely to show aggression. Additionally, provide ample swimming space and hideouts to help reduce potential conflicts.
