Raising Red eyed tetras

The Moenkhausia sanctaefilomenae species is generally good fish for beginners, but experienced aquarists will find them beautiful too - not very demanding, accepting almost every normal pH value (7 is just fine), being used to a wide range of temperatures (25°C is OK), they're really good for every peaceful community aquarium. South American biotope suits requirements of Red eyed tetras - a species tank will be perfect especially if you want to reproduce this species successfully. Bear in mind that Tetras love plants. If you're starting a new aquarium, and if it's cycled or if it's in the process of cycling (meant as nitrogen cycle), then choose fast growing plants -

Cabomba furcata - needs bright lighting
Echinodorus latifolius - needs bright lighting too, and is a beautiful midground plant!!!
Ludwigia inclinata - needs bright lighting
Myriophyllum aquaticum - bright lighting too, and is a brilliant background plant

Moenkhausia sanctaefilomenae can live even 5 or more years and you can mix albino form along with normally pigmented fish in one tank. Most likely albinos will breed with albinos, and fish with normal pigment will breed with normally pigmented fish, but it's definitely worth it!

One than that holds 100 liters of water can house even 25 of these Tetras!

Give this fish a shot and definitely they're not expensive at all - you should find them for $1-$2.50 per specimen. A group of 25 fish would cost maximally $50 which isn't that bad.
