Stunning in planted tanks
Peaceful community fish
Silvertip Tetras (Hasemania nana) are lively schooling fish with metallic color and distinct pale fin tips. They are more active than many small community tetras.
A proper group and enough swimming room help reduce chasing and fin-focused behavior.
Care Notes
Give Silvertips plenty of swimming room and keep them in a proper group. Their activity level is higher than many common tetras.
Avoid slow, long-finned tank mates and feed a varied omnivorous diet.

Fish ship Monday through Wednesday via Overnight / Next Day Air and typically arrive Tuesday through Thursday in insulated packaging with weather-appropriate protection.
What tank size do Silvertip Tetras need?+
We recommend at least 20 gallons with open swimming room.

Feed flake, pellets, frozen foods, and occasional live foods.

Live plants give nano fish cover, reduce stress, and create a more natural aquarium. They help break up sightlines, provide shelter for shy fish, and support a healthier planted tank.
