Silver Tip Tetra 3cm (Group of 10)

The Silver Tip Tetra (Hasemania nana) is a lively and eye-catching schooling fish from the São Francisco River basin in Brazil. Its warm golden-amber body is tipped with bright silver-white on the fins, creating a sparkling, shimmering effect as a school darts and weaves through the aquarium. Active, hardy, and full of personality, Silver Tips are a fantastic choice for community tanks.
