Congo Tetra

Congo Tetra (Phenacogrammus interruptus) is a very good fish for larger scale community fish tanks. They are fast, elegant and will always attract attention with its transparent body. When mature, the iridescent colors of the Congo tetra run through the fish from front to back, starting with blue on top changing to red through the middle, to yellow-gold, and back to blue just above the belly. It is not its fluorescent colors that make this tetra so distinct, but rather its tail fin, which develops into a grayish-violet feathery appendage with white edges.
