Ember Tetra, Hyphessobrycon amandae
 

The beautiful Ember Tetra has a bright red, or orange body that is semitransparent, making it look like a tiny bit of firey glass. These tetras reach a maximum size of less than an inch, and should not be mixed with larger fishes that may eat them. .
Ember tetras will nearly glow in a planted aquarium, making them an excellent choice. They can also be mixed with any other small, peaceful fish.
