Yellow-Tailed African Tetra is a peaceful Congo-basin shoaling fish. The accepted name is Alestopetersius caudalis; the previous Hemigrammopetersius wording is retained only as a synonym note so the page stays accurate without losing trade-name recognition.
Keep it in a proper shoal with open swimming room, planted edges and steady mature filtration. It is not a native UK fish and should not be mixed into coldwater or pond advice. Use small prepared foods plus frozen or live micro-foods for condition.
