Like regular Neon Tetras, these Green Neons are a calm, schooling nano fish originating in South American rivers. This species lesser kept nano fish that just adds another layer of pizazz to your community tank!

The colors are absolutely stunning, and they display strong schooling behaviors. You'll love watching a group hover and dart as one!

I've added a few photos so you can see what these little guys look like in different lighting. I've always felt Neons to be underrated, and the Green neon, even more so.

This species (Paracheirodon simulans) is typically wild caught, and somewhat difficult to captive breed. These are often confused with Neon Tetras - they do look quite similar! Neon Tetras have more blueish coloring, and are somewhat smaller. They have basically the same needs as most  other nano Tetra species.

These display the best coloring and behavior while in groups of 6+, and will grow to a maximum of 1.5 inches. They absolutely must be kept in schools of 6 or more, else they begin to behave erratically and retreat into hiding. When selecting tankmates, be sure to select other docile and calm community species, otherwise your tetras could become the subject of fish bullying!

They are peaceful but absolutely love tiny live food such as brine shrimp, Artemia, and other micro fauna. As they are mostly top and middle water column feeders, do be sure to give them slow-sinking or floating food. They generally don't like to dig around in the substrate.

Your Tetras will be young, without full adult coloration, and and about a 1/2" long.

Care Parameters:

  • Peaceful community fish
  • Growth to a maximum of 1.5"
  • 4-5 year life span


Undemanding Water Parameters:
  • PH: 5 - 7.5 (they prefer acidic water, generally)
  • Temperature: 70- 82 Degrees
  • Hardness: 3 - 12 dH
I ship insulated with medicated water, and Purigen, by tracked and insured USPS Priority only, and use cool packs when needed.
Do consider purchasing a heat pack if the temperatures in your area are below 40 degrees!

Please arrange to pull these little guys right indoors once they arrive to your mailbox. USPS also has a free mail hold service on their website. Please utilize this service if no one can be home.

While in quarantine before being sold, we treat all our live fish with the ‘Med Trio’; Maracyn for bacterial infections, Paracleanse for internal and external parasites, and Ich-X for fungal infections.

Green Neons Healthy

The green neons came in looking great. They have settled into the quarantine tank and I can't wait to release them into their home. Would buy again.

Great 🐟

I ordered 6 Green Neon Tetras and received only 4. The other 2 fish were Regular Neon Tetras which I did not want, however all were healthy and did well.
