A fairly recent addition to the aquatics hobby, the Kitty tetra is a beautiful golden-yellow species from the heavily vegetated tropical streams of Mato Grosso, Brazil. Kitty tetras must be maintained in groups of 6 or more due to their shoaling nature, and the cover of plants will be much appreciated.
