Glow light tetra

[MrFishyHead]

Hi, I brought some glow light tetras and can't see them, do they like to hide or are the afraid of my other fish. E.g loaches, angels and barbs. What sort of fish do they like to be with and what temperature do they like ? Any help would be much appreciatef.

How many glowlight tetras did you get? They like to be in groups of at least 6. They can get along well with neon tetras, cherry barbs, cardinal tetras and many other similar fish. All of these others would need to be kept in groups of 6 at a minimum as well.

Also... What size tank are they in?

 

[MrFishyHead]

I brought 5 of them together, 1 is dead, 1 is alright, 1 is hiding the top of the tank hiding, and theater 2 are missing, havent seen them since yesterday when I out them in. The tank is about 3ft by 2ft.

Did you cycle it?

 

[MrFishyHead]

If you mean did I cycle them home then no, I walked. By the way 4 are now dead one is alive but looks beaten up and is not eatibg.

Read the link in my signature on fishless cycling... That will answer your questions.

Hmm how long has your tank been established? Do you have a master test kit to test your water?
