Red Endler

Red Endler is a popular freshwater fish in the aquarium hobby known for their bright colors and active behavior. They are relatively small, with males growing up to 1 inch (2.5 cm) in length and females growing up to 1.5 inches (3.8 cm). Red Endlers are easy to care for and are suitable for beginner aquarists.

Red Endlers are omnivores and will eat a variety of foods, including flake and pellet food, as well as live and frozen foods such as brine shrimp and bloodworms. It is important to feed them a varied diet to ensure they receive all the necessary nutrients.

Males are more colorful and have a pointed anal fin, while females are larger and have a more rounded anal fin.

Red Endlers are livebearers and are known for their prolific breeding. They can breed in a community tank, but it is recommended to have a separate breeding tank to prevent other fish from eating the fry. The gestation period is around 28 days, and females can give birth to up to 30 fry at a time.

Red Endlers are generally hardy fish and are not prone to many diseases. However, like all fish, they can be susceptible to ich and other common diseases if water conditions are not maintained properly.

Red Endlers are native to the streams and tributaries of Venezuela.

Red Endlers are peaceful fish and do not pose a threat to other fish in the tank. However, they may be bullied by larger or more aggressive fish, so it is important to choose tankmates carefully.

When introducing Red Endlers to a new tank, it is important to acclimate them slowly to avoid shock. Float the bag in the aquarium for 15-20 minutes to allow the water temperature to equalize, then gradually add small amounts of aquarium water to the bag over the course of an hour before releasing the fish into the tank.
