This video shows a male and female Congo Tetra Fish. As is the case with many of the Bigger Tetra Fish, the Male Congo Tetra has longer
fins than the female.
These fish are Long Fin Black Skirt Tetras ...
... and these are Rummy Nose Tetras with their red "noses" and striped tails ...
... but we are not quite sure about the name of these Tetras. They were imported as wild fish and may be Serpae Tetras.
To the right is a beautiful group of Red Serpae Tetras for sale at our online retail fish store. Click here for
more about buying Tetras from us. Serpae Tetras are hardy fish that live best in a group with at least six Serpaes.
The Serpae Tetras, shown above, had just finished eating a big meal of floating flake food and freeze dried blood worms, so their stomachs look round and
full.

Comments
The group of fish that we call the Bigger Tetras includes the fish listed above and many others. The care for all of these Tetras is
about the same. Many of these Bigger Tetras are beautiful, and all of them have been favorites of aquarists for many years.
These Bigger Tetras are mild tempered and don't do well in aquariums with aggressive fish. On the other hand these Bigger Tetras grow too big and become too aggressive for Neon
Tetras and other Small Tetras.
