In this section, you will find a selection of neon tetra food that is designed to fulfil the needs of this fascinating fish species.

Nutritional requirements of neon tetras

Neon tetras, also known as neon fish, neon tetra or simply neon and scientifically known as Paracheirodon innesi or Cheirodon innesi and Hyphessobrycon innesi, are extremely peaceful schooling fish that are popular freshwater fish in the aquarium. To ensure the health and well-being of neon fish, it is essential that they receive a balanced and varied diet. Their natural habitat in the rivers and streams of South America provides clues to their eating habits. Neon tetras are omnivores, i.e. they prefer animal food in the form of microorganisms in the wild.

Buying neon tetra food

When keeping neon tetras in the aquarium, you can feed the neon fish with suitable fine dry food such as flake food, granulated food or food tablets, frozen food and live food of all kinds such as Artemia, white, black or red mosquito larvae, Daphnia (water fleas), Cyclops (copepods) and Tubifex (mud tube worms / stream tube worms).
