Name: Pristella Tetra
Max Size: Pristella Tetras typically grow to a size of around 1.5 inches.
Water Parameters: Pristella Tetras prefer slightly acidic to neutral water conditions with a pH range of 6.0-7.5. The temperature should be maintained between 72-82Β°F. They appreciate a well-maintained aquarium with good water quality.
Diet: Pristella Tetras are omnivorous and will readily accept a variety of foods. They primarily feed on small insects, worms, and zooplankton in the wild. In captivity, they can be fed high-quality flakes, pellets, and frozen or live foods such as bloodworms, brine shrimp, and daphnia.
Temperament: Pristella Tetras are generally peaceful and can be kept in community tanks with other peaceful fish of similar size. They may show some fin-nipping behavior if they are stressed or overcrowded, so it's important to provide them with ample space and hiding spots.
Tank Setup: Pristella Tetras prefer a well-planted aquarium with open swimming areas. They appreciate the presence of floating plants that provide shade and create a more natural environment. A sandy substrate and some driftwood or rocks can also be added to mimic their natural habitat.
Compatibility: Pristella Tetras are compatible with a wide range of peaceful community fish. Avoid keeping them with larger, aggressive species that may prey on them or with fin-nipping fish that may damage their fins.
Behavior: Pristella Tetras are active and schooling fish. They are known for their vibrant yellow and black coloration, especially on their dorsal and caudal fins. They are social fish and should be kept in groups of at least six individuals to promote their natural schooling behavior.
Fun Fact: Pristella Tetras are popular aquarium fish due to their striking coloration and active nature. They are also known as "X-ray Tetras" because of the transparent section on their body that resembles an X-ray image. With their lively behavior and beautiful appearance, they add a lively and vibrant touch to any community aquarium.
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) Iβve 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.

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.
