Neon Acara, also known as Blue Acara or Electric Blue Acara, is a vibrant and stunning freshwater fish species highly sought after by aquarists.
 
Appearance: Neon Acaras are known for their striking electric blue coloration, which covers most of their body. They have a sleek, oval-shaped body with pointed fins. The intensity of their blue coloration can vary depending on factors like mood, age, and health.
Size: These fish typically grow to be around 4 to 6 inches (10 to 15 cm) in length when fully mature.
Habitat: Neon Acaras are native to South America, primarily found in the Amazon basin and its tributaries. They inhabit slow-moving rivers, streams, and flooded forests where the water is warm and slightly acidic.
Tank Requirements: They prefer a well-planted aquarium with plenty of hiding spots and open swimming areas. A tank size of at least 30 gallons is recommended for a pair or small group. The water temperature should be kept between 75°F to 82°F (24°C to 28°C), with a slightly acidic to neutral pH level (around 6.5 to 7.0).
Behavior: Neon Acaras are generally peaceful but can become territorial, especially during breeding or if they feel threatened. They are best kept with other peaceful fish species that are of similar size and temperament.
Diet: These fish are omnivores and will accept a variety of foods including high-quality flakes, pellets, live, and frozen foods such as bloodworms, brine shrimp, and small insects. A varied diet will help ensure their overall health and vibrant coloration.
Compatibility: They can be kept with other peaceful community fish species such as tetras, rasboras, dwarf cichlids, and peaceful catfish species. However, it's best to avoid keeping them with overly aggressive or large fish that may bully or intimidate them.
