The green fire tetra is one of our favorite fish in the shop, showing greenish-grey coloration with a little red coloration near the tail. It closely resembles fish like Neon tetras and cardinal tetras with a much greener coloration. These fish will generally ship at a size of around an inch and can reach a max size of around 2 inches.
The green fire tetra we sell can be quick to food while feeding, tank mates should be picked with care, they could potentially cause harm to dwarf shrimp so larger tank mates are recommended. The green fire tetra are collected from South America and do well in neutral parameter tanks.
The Scientific name for the Green Fire Tetra is Aphyocharax rathbuni
We feed our Green Fire Tetras a large variety of foods and it is accepting of almost any food. We feed our tetras frozen foods (daphnia and baby brine shrimp), Northfin flake foods, Northfin pellets, and live baby brine shrimp.

Very unique. I haven’t seen this kinda of tetra before. I can’t wait till they get bigger and green becomes more prevalent.
Unfortunately I lost 2 tetras 2 days after I received them. Thank for the gift certificate to replace my loss. Already place a new order for more shrimp and tetras.
They are tiny but very active.I got 10 of them and they don’t disappoint there zooming all around my 40gl exploring every little bit of food or debris they can find.
I can’t say it enough! Great service and great quality of fish, shrimp and snails.
Awesome always like to buy from flip aquatic
These fish came in in great condition. I will be happy to move them out of my quarantine tank and into my show tank. They are already showing color
