CatWhat Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 After what seemed to be a never ending search for Bucktooth Tetras, now has finally ended. One of my LFS placed an order for me for Bucktooth Tetras. I have had them now for three days and all are doing really well. Eating frozen and flake which I was surprised as they are wild caught so I thought I might have a hard time to get them to take flake food. I added the air stones to create some current and help with the oxygenation, I was thinking of adding a propeller as well but I think that might be a bit too much current for them.Here are some pics.

tomuhs Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 Beautiful tank and exodons! Looks like you're doing everything right: having them in a group and then putting them in a planted tank. Perfect biotope with the sand and planted tank. Looks like your filtration is sufficient and I believe these guys don't require crazy flow like african tigers fish, a larger characidae. How many did you end up getting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatWhat Posted April 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 Thanks. I'm using two Aqua Clear 300's/70's plus the air pump. I bought 28 in hopes that having a large number in the school would help defuse their aggression. I'm think of getting a couple more plants, perhaps some larger amazon swords.
