Emperor Tetra (Nematobrycon palmeri)
Emperor Tetra (Nematobrycon palmeri) are perfect comunity fish for bigger tanks with larger fish. These guys are fast and stand up for themselves while not being aggressive without reason. Very nice fish to have. Give them a good food like Hikari Micro Pellets or Dennerle Complete Gourmet Menu and they will reward you with fantastic colour!
