Blind Cave Fish Tetra Astyanax Mexicanus 5cm

“Introducing the Blind Cave Fish Tetra (Astyanax Mexicanus), a fascinating and unique addition to your aquarium! Originating from the deep caves of Mexico, these remarkable tetras have adapted to their lightless environment, evolving without eyesight yet boasting heightened other senses.

These tetras are omnivores and readily accept various foods, including flakes, pellets, and live or frozen fare like bloodworms and brine shrimp. Due to their sensitive nature, a well-balanced diet is crucial for their health.

Known for their peaceful demeanor, Blind Cave Fish Tetras prefer to cohabit with similarly tranquil species like other tetras, small rasboras, and peaceful bottom-dwellers such as Corydoras catfish. Their non-aggressive behavior makes them an ideal fit for community tanks.

Recommended for aquarists with intermediate experience, these tetras thrive in well-maintained tanks with stable water conditions. Aim for a pH range of 6.5 to 7.5 and a temperature between 68°F to 75°F (20°C to 24°C). Ensure good filtration and regular water changes to keep these tetras at their best.

Bring home the enigmatic Blind Cave Fish Tetra and marvel at their captivating presence in your aquarium!”
