Rummy-Nose Tetra (Hemigrammus bleheri) is a premium schooling species known for its electric red head and crisp black-and-white tail banding. In a well-maintained aquarium, they move as one fluid unit, creating a living current of motion that instantly elevates any aquascape.
Best displayed in groups of 6+, where their coordination and color intensity fully develop. The deeper the water quality, the brighter the “rummy” glow becomes—making them both a visual centerpiece and a natural indicator of a clean, stable system.
Peaceful, refined, and always active, they pair perfectly with other calm community species in planted or blackwater-style setups.
