Red Eye Red Line Tetra (Hemigrammus rubrostriatus), also known as the red stripe tetra, is a rare fish in the aquarium hobby, known only from Colombia. They were only recently discovered and described, in 2015. Their iridescent gold and red coloration make them a striking fish for almost any freshwater tank. As with many tetras, Red Eye Red Line Tetras are relatively easy to care for and will do best in groups of 5 or more.
