Or can they interbreed? With what?
I have painted tetra. I go one before I was aware of the cruel process to get them that color. What's the original painted tetra?
And can I stock my tank more. I have 6 pristella tetras and a painted tetra. Do you recommend adding more pristilla tetras to increase chance of breeding?
They are painting too many fish these days so I'd need to see a pic of the fish to even hazard a guess as to it's origin.
As for breeding, it only takes 2 fish... a male and a female. It's a better process to breed them intentionally if you want to raise the fry which means a separate tank to do this. Otherwise, it really won't matter how many you have in the tank. The eggs will most likely be eaten by either the other fish in the tank or the parents themselves.
Hope this helps
A 5 gallon good for 2 small fish? If I order the, online can I get a garranteed male and female?
