The Red Eye Tetra, also known as the Balloon Red Eye Tetra, is a freshwater fish known for its striking red eyes and vibrant body coloration. These tetras have a distinctive round body shape due to selective breeding, which gives them a balloon-like appearance. They are relatively small, peaceful fish, making them popular choices for community aquariums. They thrive in well-maintained tanks with plenty of plants and hiding spots. Their diet typically consists of small live and frozen foods, as well as high-quality flake and pellet foods.
