Commonly known as Congo Tetra
INFORMATION:
Classification:
Alestiidae
Origin:
Wild populations are endemic to parts of the Congo River basin in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Most commercially available fish are commercially farmed in the Far East and Eastern Europe.
Its form is:
Male fish are larger and much more colorful. They also develop extended filaments on the caudal fin and a widely extended dorsal fin.
Its size is:
Male 8cm
Female 6cm
Parameters required:
PH: between 6.0 and 7.5
Temperature can range between 23ºC and 28ºC
Aquarium size:
120x30x30cm for adult fish, although young specimens can be kept in smaller tanks.
Feeding:
A good diet for Phenacogrammus interruptus can consist of:
- Canned food type: Artemia and mysis
- Dry food type: Vipan baby and Immunpro Mini Nature
Behavior:
It is a peaceful species but can scare shy species with its active swimming and large adult size.
However, it is recommended for most community tanks. Ideal tank mates include other tetras, rainbowfish, Corydoras, Loricariids, Synodontis and various peaceful cichlids such as Pelvicachromis sp. or Cleithracara.
Do not keep congo tetras with fin-biting species, as the males' spectacular fins will be destroyed.
Likewise, they should not be kept with boisterous tank mates due to their shy nature.
P. interruptus should be kept in a mixed school for best effect.
