However, that being said, they can be found in aquarium stores across the world and they do look amazing in a planted aquarium. 🌱 🐟 Keeping the Diamond Tetra in your home aquarium is something of a treat. Many are sold as juveniles while they are still developing. Anyone who has maintained a group of them long enough to reach adulthood will have experienced the true beauty of these small fish. As young fish they can appear quite boring in appearance but as an adult, they really earn the name ‘Diamond Tetra’. Do you keep Diamond tetra yourself? Why not share a photo and tag fb_Mikolji We would love to see them. 👀Watch NEW documentary: https://lnkd.in/epUMKPfA
