Neon Tetras

Brinksta · 11-26-2011, 02:43 AM

I have 5 neon tetras in a 47 gallon tank. I have mollies also so I keep the temp around 80 degrees all the time. Is that fine for the neon tetras?

Neons are usually kept at around ~75 degrees. They can be kept anywhere between 68 - 80 degrees.

I only have them in my Angel tank and I keep it at 81-82. Never had a problem.

I had to laugh at that because a couple of weeks ago I did an online aquarium filtration calculator where you input fish, filter type, tank dimensions ect. and it spits out fish compatibility and filtration percentage. It told me that about 85% of my fish are not compatible and that my angels would nip at my neons. All my fish get along great.
