The Diamond Eye Neon Tetra is a captivating freshwater fish that adds a touch of elegance and vibrancy to any planted aquarium. This fish, a variant of the popular Neon Tetra, typically grows to about 1.5 inches (3.8 cm) in length and is known for its striking appearance. Its body is characterized by a brilliant iridescent blue stripe that runs from the head to the tail, just above a vivid red stripe that extends along the lower half of its body. What sets the Diamond Eye Neon Tetra apart is the shimmering, diamond-like glint in its eyes, which adds an extra layer of allure to its already stunning color palette.

Native to the slow-moving waters of the Amazon Basin in South America, the Diamond Eye Neon Tetra thrives in soft, slightly acidic water with plenty of plants and dim lighting. In a well-planted tank, their colors become even more vivid, especially when swimming against the backdrop of lush green foliage. The dense plant cover also provides them with hiding spots and a sense of security, which is essential for their well-being.

Diamond Eye Neon Tetras are peaceful schooling fish and should be kept in groups of six or more to allow them to exhibit their natural, harmonious behavior. They are compatible with other small, non-aggressive fish, making them an ideal choice for a community tank. The serene environment of a planted tank helps them feel at ease, allowing their colors and unique eye shimmer to stand out.

These tetras prefer stable water conditions, with temperatures ranging from 72-80°F (22-27°C) and a pH of 6.0 to 7.0. The water should be well-filtered with a gentle current to replicate their natural habitat.

As omnivores, Diamond Eye Neon Tetras thrive on a varied diet that includes high-quality flake food, micro-pellets, and small live or frozen foods such as daphnia, brine shrimp, and bloodworms. Providing a diverse diet will keep them healthy and help maintain their vibrant coloration.

The Diamond Eye Neon Tetra's mesmerizing colors, peaceful nature, and compatibility with planted tanks make it a delightful addition to any freshwater aquarium. Their sparkling eyes and vibrant stripes create a dazzling display, bringing both beauty and tranquility to your aquatic environment.
