Description
Bandtail Tetra Moenkhausia Dichroura
Family: Characidae
Origin: Paraguay, Guyana, Brazil
Length: 4,5 cm - 1.8"
Common Name: Bandtail tetra
Not a great deal is known about this species, but what we do know is that it is peaceful schooling fish.
That demands good water quality,
A dimmed light or the use of floating plants and a dark substrate bring out the colours of the fish.
Some sources say that they eat plants, but other sources deny that.
Because they are very rare not much is known about them.
They are omnivorous and should be given a varied diet of live, frozen and dry food.
Regards to breeding in the aquarium nothing is known at this point in time.
