Can you have a fish tank with 18 neon tetras and 2 large goldfish?
It is not recommended to keep neon tetras with large goldfish. Goldfish are coldwater fish while neon tetras are tropical fish, meaning they have different temperature and water quality requirements. Additionally, goldfish can be aggressive and may try to eat the smaller neons. It's best to keep fish with similar needs together to ensure their well-being.
Do neon tetras actually have neon in them?
Neon light bulbs work by transmitting electricity through neon gas to produce light. Neon tetras are not electric, so neon is not the culprit of the fishes shimmer. The colors that you see on a neon tetra are a result of iridescence.
Can you keep Betta fish with Neon Tetra fish?
You can put at least 5 neon tetras with Betta's because neon tetras need to be in a school. If you only put 1-3 neon tetras, then they will probably be eaten by the Betta because you won't have enough neon tetras to be in a school. The purpose for a school is to protect themselves from predators with a group and if you only have 1-3 neon tetras, then they will hide and get really stressed out. So, get at least 5 neon tetras and another important thing is, get a big enough tank for your Betta and neon tetra. That is, because, as you know, Betta fish are territorial and need their own territory and if the neon tetras enter their territory (if the tank is small), then the Betta will probably attack (that is only if you don't have enough neon tetras and not a big enough tank). So, it is important to get at least a 10- 15 gallon tank and get at least 5 neon tetras for 1 Betta fish. 1-3 neon tetras won't work. They will not be in a school and will be stressed out and hide from the Betta. A thing about neon tetras that is interesting and is cool is that, neon tetras bury their eggs in the gravel (Make sure to only have gravel!) if their eggs are not going to hatch. Also eat them.~Thank you, and good luck!~
