These little Ember Tetras have become my new favorite nano schooling fish. The quality of McMerwe’s livestock is always top-grade! These little guys have such character, and have become a real feature in our tetra community tank – they just always seem happy, and excited every time they see us.

Beautiful fish in a nano planted aquarium. I also have peace of mind when I buy fish here, because they were quarantined.

Although not the most colourful in a community tank, these little fish have taken up residence quite happily – very healthy and active.
