Congos have topped my wishlist for a long time. As soon as my trustee Fish Shop had them, I made the purchase and now I'd say they probably are the most beautiful fish I have ever kept - The colours are unreal, an almost literal mind-blower. I don't know what's the evolutionary advantage of it, just know, provided your tank is big enough (at least a 40 gallon / 150 litres for a species-only setting), they are perfect as aquarium fish.

We have congo tetras in the pet store where I work, and once I discovered how beautiful they actually are, I put them to my wishlist as well. Now I'm reading as much as possible about aquariums, planning to get one as soon as possible and then hopefully be able to have congo tetras :)

Congo tetras are wonderful fish, but they do get big. What it took me a while to realize is that there are many other species of Congo tetras, like in the genus Alesteopetersius. Any of these species have marvelous colors when they have the right environment, but it is true, all of them often look dull in the shops. The Congo tetras here are obviously taken well cared of and truly shine!

Hi Dev C, Monte Carlo can be quite similar to moss, it can be attached to rocks / stones / woods with glue or cotton thread. After sometimes, the roots will grow and the plants will attach itself to the medium. But please take note to keep trimming it since it tends to float when it gets too thick. 😁

The fish might take sometimes to be mature and show their best colours. Males are more colourful than females one, too. Also, I find they are more confident and comfortable in numbers, more of them in the tank they feel safer, hence showing nicer colour.

Hi buddy. The fish did jump out. To prevent that to happen, normally I will cover the tank top with plastic grates the first week after releasing them in the tank. Also, to have more fish in the tank which make them feel secure. When they get use to the tank, they will less tend to jump out. You can also gradually reduce the light intensity if possible and avoid sudden on/off bright light.
