Columbian Redfin Tetra
The Columbian Redfin Tetra is a bold and eye-catching schooling fish that stands out from the crowd. Its silver-blue body is complemented by vivid red fins that flash brilliantly under aquarium lighting — especially striking when a school moves together. Slightly larger and more robust than many tetras, it brings energy and colour to any community tank.
