The Bleeding Blue Tetra is a vivid, peaceful fish that adds a pop of color to any community aquarium. With its unique red "bleeding heart" spot and preference for soft, slightly acidic water, this tetra is an ideal choice for beginner to intermediate aquarists. Achieve successful breeding with proper care and a specialized tank. It is very easy to determine the gender of this species since the males have red fins while the females do not.
