To replicate their natural habitat,the use of rock work, plants, and driftwood should be included in the aquarium. They also enjoy tannins in their water, so the use of Indian Almond or Guava leaves is highly recommended. We would not recommend keepingthis fishwith shrimp colonies due to the likeliness ofthe bleeding blue tetra eating baby shrimp and potentiallypicking atadult shrimp.
They are omnivores by nature. We feed our Bleeding Blue Tetras a mix of frozen foods including daphnia, baby brine, cyclops, and bloodworms with the occassional mix of Northfin foods.
