It's a fast grower and an active, confident schooler that quickly becomes a focal point in a busy community tank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a rugged, adaptable fish that tolerates a wide range of water conditions, making it a forgiving choice for less experienced keepers. Keep it in a decent-sized group and it settles into a relaxed, outgoing temperament — though its energetic nature and occasional nibbling at soft plants means it's best suited to a hardscape-focused or robust community setup rather than a delicate planted tank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt N8 Aquatics, our fish are carefully raised and conditioned to ensure healthy stock suited to home aquariums.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #2d5f3f; margin-top: 20px;\"\u003eSpecies Snapshot\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize Sold:\u003c\/strong\u003e Juvenile, 2-3 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAdult Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5-7 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTank Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 80 L minimum, keep in a larger group of 8 or more to spread any nippy behaviour\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperament:\u003c\/strong\u003e Peaceful to semi-boisterous — can nip fins if kept in too small a group or with slow, long-finned tankmates\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperature:\u003c\/strong\u003e 22-26°C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003epH:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6.0-7.5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDifficulty:\u003c\/strong\u003e Easy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #2d5f3f; margin-top: 20px;\"\u003eIdeal Habitat and Care\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProvide a tank of at least 80 L minimum with plenty of cover and open swimming space, matching the temperament and schooling needs described above.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperature:\u003c\/strong\u003e 22-26°C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003epH:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6.0-7.5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater Flow:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moderate flow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaintenance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Weekly partial water changes; a tough species that tolerates minor fluctuations well\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #2d5f3f; margin-top: 20px;\"\u003eDiet\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA robust omnivore that isn't a fussy eater at all.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlake or pellet as a daily staple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrozen daphnia and bloodworm for variety\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWill also take some plant matter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOccasional live food as a treat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #2d5f3f; margin-top: 20px;\"\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA hardy, active schooler best suited to equally robust community tankmates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuitable tankmates include:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOther robust community fish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBarbs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDanios\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCorydoras\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAvoid aggressive or fin-nipping species.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #2d5f3f; margin-top: 20px;\"\u003eWhy Buy From N8 Aquatics\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarefully raised aquarium fish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHealthy, well-conditioned stock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrong genetics and vibrant colouration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBreeder support if you have questions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #2d5f3f; margin-top: 20px;\"\u003ePickup Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eN8 Aquatics currently operates as a local pickup-only breeder in Central Queensland.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrders are collected by appointment after purchase confirmation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease ensure you are able to collect your fish before placing an order.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #2d5f3f; margin-top: 20px;\"\u003eImportant\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll livestock sold by N8 Aquatics should be introduced to fully cycled aquariums suitable for the species being kept.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease ensure your aquarium setup and tankmates are appropriate before purchasing.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"N8 Aquatics","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":47863553556585,"sku":"PISCES-22052","price":11.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/9520\/1897\/files\/3cm_Buenos_Aires_Tetra_a27bbb09-fa42-42a3-b876-0e7028272391.jpg?v=1785898027","url":"https:\/\/n8aquatics.com\/products\/buenos-aires-tetra","provider":"N8 Aquatics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
