Hockey Stick Tetra Fish

We are involved in supplying a superior range of Hockey Stick Tetra Fish in Bengaluru, Karnataka, India.Hayeria boehlkei is known in the aquarium trade variously as hockeystick tetra, penguin tetra, penguin fish or blackline penguinfish, after the black markings on its body. It grows to about 3 inches (7.6 cm), and hails from the Amazon and Araguaia river basins of South America. Thayeria obliqua and Thayeria ifati are related species which share similar black markings and also are referred to as a penguin fisha .

Hayeria boehlkei was found to have a center-of-mass naturally behind its center-of-buoyancy, meaning that if the fish was motionless, it would float slightly head-up. Loss of the caudal fin additionally hampered the fisha s ability to maintain its preferred head-up posture, causing the body to tilt even further .
