Description
The Glo Widow Tetra is a genetically modified variant of the classic Black Widow Tetra (Gymnocorymbus ternetzi), known for its vibrant, eye-catching colors that glow under blue LED lights. This fish is available in a variety of bright hues, typically including electric blue, neon green, hot pink, vivid purple, and bright orange. These colors make the Glo Widow Tetra an exciting and visually striking addition to any freshwater aquarium.
Each fish in the assorted pack stands out with its unique color, creating a dynamic and lively display when kept together in a group. Growing to about 2 inches (5 cm) in length, these tetras maintain the same body shape and fin structure as the original Black Widow Tetra, with a slightly rounded body and flowing, triangular dorsal fin. Their glowing colors are not only beautiful but also safe, as they are created through a natural process that does not harm the fish.
Glo Widow Tetras are schooling fish and should be kept in groups of at least six to ensure they feel secure and display their natural behaviors. When kept together in an assorted pack, their vibrant colors create a mesmerizing display, especially under aquarium lighting that enhances their glow.
These tetras are peaceful and do well in community tanks with other non-aggressive fish of similar size. They thrive in a well-planted aquarium, where their colors contrast beautifully against green foliage. The plants also provide them with places to hide and explore, helping to reduce stress and promote natural behavior.
Glo Widow Tetras prefer stable water conditions with a temperature range of 72-82°F (22-28°C) and a pH of 6.0 to 7.5. They are hardy fish, adaptable to a variety of water conditions, making them suitable for both beginner and experienced aquarists.
As omnivores, they enjoy a varied diet that includes high-quality flake food, micro-pellets, and occasional treats of live or frozen foods such as brine shrimp and daphnia. A balanced diet helps maintain their vibrant colors and overall health.
The Glo Widow Tetra's combination of striking neon colors, peaceful temperament, and adaptability makes them a popular choice for aquarists looking to add a splash of color and energy to their aquarium. The assorted pack offers a beautiful variety of hues, transforming your tank into a glowing underwater spectacle.
