Hyphessobrycon Bifasciatus 'Ghost'

Description

The Hyphessobrycon bifasciatus 'Ghost' is a variety of tetra that is often selected for its distinctive appearance.

The Hyphessobrycon bifasciatus 'Ghost' is a captivating tetra variant known for its translucent or ghostly appearance. Its body is typically clear or semi-transparent, allowing a glimpse of its internal organs and skeletal structure. This unique characteristic sets it apart from other tetra varieties.

1. Temperature: Maintain a water temperature between 72°F to 78°F (22°C to 26°C) for the well-being of Hyphessobrycon bifasciatus 'Ghost.'
2. Minimum Size Tank: A minimum tank size of 15 to 20 gallons is recommended to accommodate a small school of Hyphessobrycon bifasciatus 'Ghost' tetras comfortably.

Feeding Habits: These tetras are omnivores and accept a varied diet. Offer high-quality flakes, pellets, and supplement with live or frozen foods such as brine shrimp, bloodworms, or daphnia.

Habitat Preference: Provide a well-planted aquarium with areas of open swimming space. These tetras appreciate the presence of driftwood, rocks, and live plants. Creating a natural environment with subdued lighting will enhance their ghostly appearance.

Water pH Level: Maintain a slightly acidic to neutral pH level between 6.0 and 7.0 for optimal health.

Behavior: Hyphessobrycon bifasciatus 'Ghost' tetras are generally peaceful and do well in community aquariums. They are known for their schooling behavior, so it's recommended to keep them in groups of six or more to reduce stress and bring out their natural behaviors.

These tetras are schooling fish, and they feel more secure and exhibit more natural behavior when kept in a group. Ensure the group is large enough to promote shoaling behavior.

Color: The unique feature of the 'Ghost' variety is its semi-transparent or clear appearance, giving it an ethereal and intriguing look.

Adding Hyphessobrycon bifasciatus 'Ghost' to your aquarium can create a visually stunning and interesting display. Ensure proper care, water conditions, and a balanced diet to keep these tetras healthy and thriving in your setup.
