The Pristella Tetra (Pristella maxillaris), also known as the X-Ray Tetra or Golden Pristella, is a hardy and popular freshwater species. Their semi-transparent “x-ray” body, paired with yellow dorsal fins and red tail tips, gives them a unique and attractive look that stands out in community aquariums. 🌿🐠
Native to South America, Pristella Tetras are peaceful schooling fish that thrive in groups of 6 or more. They are perfect for both beginners and experienced aquarists due to their adaptability and lively schooling behavior. ✨
