About the Golden Rummynose Tetra

Name: Golden Rummynose Tetra

Max Size: Up to 1.5 inches (3.8 cm)

Recommend pH: 5.5-7.0

Recommended Temperature (Β°F): 75-82Β°F (24-28Β°C)

Diet: Golden Rummynose Tetras are omnivorous and have a small mouth, so they prefer small-sized foods. They will accept high-quality flake foods, micro pellets, and small frozen or live foods such as brine shrimp, daphnia, and bloodworms. Adding some vegetable matter to their diet, like finely crushed spirulina flakes or blanched vegetables, is beneficial for their overall health.

Temperament: Peaceful

Schooling or Non-Schooling Fish: Schooling Fish (Golden Rummynose Tetras are schooling fish and should be kept in groups of at least six individuals to create a natural social structure and minimize stress.)

Possible types of tank mates: Golden Rummynose Tetras are peaceful and can be kept with other small, peaceful community fish. They are compatible with other tetras, rasboras, dwarf cichlids, and non-aggressive species like Corydoras catfish. Avoid keeping them with fin-nipping or aggressive fish that may harass or stress them.

Behavior: Golden Rummynose Tetras, also known as Hemigrammus bleheri, are a color variant of the popular Rummynose Tetra species. They are named for the distinctive bright golden coloration on their lower body and tail, which contrasts beautifully with the red "nose" marking on their head. Golden Rummynose Tetras are active swimmers and prefer to inhabit the middle and upper levels of the aquarium. They are known for their schooling behavior, forming tight groups and moving in synchrony. This schooling behavior not only adds visual appeal to the aquarium but also helps them feel secure and reduce stress. When well-fed and in optimal conditions, their bodies display a striking iridescent sheen that further enhances their beauty.

Fun Fact: Golden Rummynose Tetras are native to the Amazon River basin in South America, particularly Brazil and Peru. They are highly regarded for their vibrant colors and peaceful nature, making them sought-after additions to community aquariums. One fascinating aspect of these tetras is their ability to display intense red "nose" markings when they are in good health and in a suitable environment. These markings are an indication of their well-being and can become more pronounced during breeding or when they are excited. This unique feature adds a touch of elegance to their appearance and makes them a captivating species to observe in the aquarium. With their attractive golden hues, peaceful temperament, and striking red markings, Golden Rummynose Tetras are a delightful choice for aquarists looking to add a touch of vibrant beauty to their aquatic landscapes.

Perhaps the best store on island to get freshwater fish. They have a huge variety, including higher end freshwater fish (discus, puffers, flowerhorns , oddballs, ect) I’ve stocked a few tanks with their fish. They quarantine well and keep it real on how their fish are doing in shop.

Had a great experience here. I was looking for a unicorn/alicorn betta and spoke with the owner, Josh, about it. I ended up using his fish importing services to import a fish from Jakarta, and he brought in a few more white opaque or unicorn type half moon bettas too, to add to the variety in store. I got a sneak peak of the store while it was shut down for one week for a proper quarantine of its new fish. The owner knows his fish and keeps them healthy. A very different experience from a Petco or PetSmart! A Petco employee even recommended I go here for more unique betta fish. Note that they carry other types of fish too, plus Aquatic plants and some aquarium equipment. Pictured are some of the giant bettas, the alicorn betta, and i believe a beautiful ram.

Wonderful shop with lots of variety. Has the most unique selection of fish on the island, and at a reasonable price! Staff is friendly and very helpful when we have questions or concerns. Love coming here and seeing the jokes around the store. Also, Vinnie!

The owner, Josh, is not just knowledgeable about the fish, but also plants and tank issues. I am new to fish tanks and he has been extremely helpful in answering my questions and offering suggestions to make my experience easier. Parking is a bit tricky, but certainly worth it.

They have rare plants you can't find at most places. Got lucky we got a few; my husband is happy. This is one of his favorite places. They get pretty busy, so be patient. The staff are very helpful.
