Green Neon Tetra Fish

The Green Neon Tetra is a great fish from South America. It originates from streams throughout the jungle where the water is stained brown from all the fallen leaves and wood. These fish will thrive in black water conditions. Although, they are very hardy and will accept a wide range of parameters. 

Please Note: All fish shipments have a 100% Live Arrival Guarantee when shipping with Overnight (1 Day) option. All other options void our Live Arrival Guarantee for fish. 

The Green Neon Tetra is identical to the Cardinal tetra but with green coloration. They are omnivores in nature and will accept a high quality flake diet or Northfin premium foods. 

The scientific name for the Green Neon Tetra is Paracheirodon simulans.

We feed our Green Neon Tetras a mix of Northfin Community and Veggie. They also get an occasional treat of frozen foods such as daphnia, cyclopods and baby brine shrimp.

Wonderfully Packaged Fish Shipment

The fish are wonderful. They all arrived alive our order was delayed and it got here in about 48 hours. The packaged fish were in excellent condition. Everyone survived the delayed shipping ordeal. I would order again and again from Flip. We no longer use other fresh water fish places online or LFS. We just have the best luck with Flip.

Vibrant Green Neons from Flip Aquatics!

I ordered Green Neon Tetras from Flip Aquatics and couldn’t be happier. The fish arrived healthy, energetic, and full of life right out of the bag. They’re stunning little swimmers with a cool, iridescent glow that really adds character to my tank. Super impressed with the quality—glad I chose Flip Aquatics!

Beautiful little fish!

Our green neon tetras arrived today, and are in the quarantine tank. So tiny, and the colors are amazing! During the day, they were an aqua green, but in the evening they deepend to a sapphire with hints of purple! I ordered five, but received six. Thank you! So far they seem happy, healthy, and hungry! ❤️ The only downside to this transaction, was that my kid got to the Swedish fish candy before I did. 😉

Love!

I love these guys! I'm always skeptical about purchasing imported fish, but these guys arrived amazingly healthy and have doubled in size since I purchased them. I wish I could add a picture.
