Red Phantom Tetra – The “Sophisticated” Red Schooler
A splash of color without the chaos. While many red tetras can be “nippy,” the Red Phantom Tetra is celebrated for its calm, peaceful nature. Known for their deep ruby-red translucency and a distinct black “phantom” spot behind the gills, these fish develop spectacular, elongated dorsal fins that they use to “dance” and display for one another.
Approximate size: 1″
