Silver Dollar Tetra

Name: Silver Dollar Tetra
Scientific Name: Metynnis argenteus
Maximum Length: 6 inches (15 cm)
Favorite Things: Large schools with their own kind, spacious aquariums with plenty of swimming room, dim lighting, and fresh veggies or algae wafers since they’re herbivores
Best Buddies: Peaceful larger community fish such as angelfish, severums, and peaceful catfish; best kept in groups of 5 or more to reduce stress
Tank Size Recommendation: A minimum of 55 gallons is recommended for a school, with larger tanks (75+ gallons) preferred to give them the space they need to swim comfortably
