Rummy-nose tetra or Hemigrammus rhodostomus
Feeding:
We feed our Rummy-nose tetra (Hemigrammus rhodostomus) Hikari Micro Pellets, but Dennerle Complete Gourmet Menu is a great food for these guys.
*Please note: For the safety of the livestock, we only ship livestock Monday – Wednesday. Please plan accordingly. We mainly sell juvenile livestock, but adults will be sent if available. We also do not sex livestock for any client, we will send a mix if available (this is to make it fair for everybody). This is company policy. PLEASE DO NOT ORDER IF YOU ARE NOT HAPPY RECEIVING ONLY MALES OR ONLY FEMALES OR JUVENILE FISH.
