Brilliant Black Diamond Neon Tetra
A selectively bred variant of the classic Neon Tetra (Paracheirodon innesi)
The Brilliant Black Diamond Neon Tetra is a stunning and rare color morph of the iconic Neon Tetra, known for its rich dark body offset by an iridescent blue-green stripe and a subtle diamond-like shimmer. This variant adds a touch of elegance and contrast to planted tanks, especially when kept in large schools. Like their standard counterparts, they are peaceful, active, and thrive in soft, acidic water conditions. Ideal for nano and community aquariums, these tetras are best appreciated in a calm, well-aquascaped environment with gentle lighting.
