Congo tetra — size comparison — facts and sources

The Congo tetra inhabits the middle and lower Congo basin. Males have strongly iridescent flanks and elongated fin sections, especially in the tail. Females are smaller and less colourful.

Groups swim together, eating worms, insects, small crustaceans and plant material. In observed aquarium spawning, the male closely accompanies the female and released eggs sink to the bottom.
