Glo Tetra – Green are fish that have been genetically altered. They have vivid fluorescent colors, as their name suggests.
They are nothing more than luminous variations of the wild species like Zebra danios, Rainbow sharks, Tiger barbs, Bettas, and Black skirt tetras that are naturally found.
The gentle Glo Tetra-Green prefers to live in shoaling groups of five or more. A solitary specimen is prone to experience stress and isolate itself.
The best and required solution is to keep them together in groups. They are gentle fish that make great tank mates for other little fish due to their disposition.
To long-finned fish, however, are semi-aggressive as long as they are sluggish, not too big, and aggressive. They begin to nibble in response to the lengthy fins.
Their intergroup hostility is also triggered if the female in a group of two or more males exhibits spawning behavior, and every male tends to pair up with the female.
If you wish to breed glofish, separate the female at this time and place her in a different setup. You can add the male afterward. The glofish tetras are otherwise calm and have distinguished themselves from the other community fishes.
