The red tetra is a small tropical fish , loved by aquarium enthusiasts for its bright color and gentle personality. August to October each year is the best time for the red tetra to breed. Let’s learn in detail how to breed red tetras. 1. The reproduction frequency of red and green tetras The red tetra breeds once a year, with the peak period being from August to October when the ambient temperature is suitable. Each time they lay about 150 eggs, showing their reproductive characteristics as egg-laying fish. 2. Suitable breeding age of red tetra Some tetras reach sexual maturity at six months of age and can begin to reproduce. The reproductive capacity of red tetras aged from August to December is the strongest and the quality of their eggs is the highest. 3. Precautions for breeding of red tetras 1. Water preparation before breeding Keep the water temperature at around 25 degrees and the pH value slightly acidic to provide the best breeding conditions for red tetras. Avoid changing water during the breeding period to avoid irritating the fish, and the water should be completely replaced before breeding. 2. Setting up the breeding tank Use a special breeding tank to simulate a dark environment, and cover it with cloth to reduce light interference. Make sure the environment around the breeding tank is quiet and free from noise or vibration. 3. Management after breeding After breeding is completed, the broodstock are immediately removed from the breeding tank and fed separately. Prevent the broodstock from swallowing the eggs and ensure the hatching rate of the eggs. In general, understanding their breeding habits and providing them with a suitable environment can not only improve the success rate of breeding, but also increase the fun of fish farming.
