Care guide at a glance

Feeding
Flake, micro-pellets and small frozen foods.
Compatibility
Peaceful community fish. Keep in groups of eight or more with other small tetras, rasboras and corydoras.
Behaviour and personality
Active mid-water shoaler. Males are more strongly coloured and display to one another.
Before you buy
The violet sheen only shows under decent lighting against dark substrate; in a bright bare tank the fish looks plain.
