Temperament: Peaceful

Schooling or Non-Schooling Fish: Schooling Fish (Blue-Eyed Black Emperor 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: Blue-Eyed Black Emperor Tetras are peaceful and can be kept with other small, peaceful community fish. Suitable tank mates include other tetras, rasboras, peaceful dwarf cichlids, and small catfish. Avoid keeping them with fin-nipping or aggressive species.

Behavior: Blue-Eyed Black Emperor Tetras are named for their striking combination of a deep black body coloration and vibrant blue eyes. Their sleek and streamlined body shape adds to their elegance. They are peaceful and active swimmers, often exploring the middle and upper levels of the aquarium. Blue-Eyed Black Emperor Tetras prefer a well-planted aquarium with open swimming spaces. They are best kept in groups to bring out their natural schooling behavior and enhance their coloration. These tetras are known to exhibit interesting shoaling behavior, swimming closely together in a synchronized manner, creating a captivating display in the aquarium.

Fun Fact: The striking blue eyes of the Blue-Eyed Black Emperor Tetra are a standout feature and add to their overall allure. The bright blue eyes contrast beautifully with their black bodies, creating a mesmerizing effect. This unique trait is a result of natural pigmentation and serves as a natural defense mechanism, helping them detect predators and navigate their environment. The blue eyes make them stand out among other tetra species and add a captivating touch to any 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) 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.
