Description & Care Info ▼
The Silver Hatchet is a unique and graceful freshwater fish, known for its distinct, hatchet-shaped body and reflective silver coloration. Native to South America, this species has an almost transparent appearance, making it an intriguing addition to any aquarium. Silver Hatchets are peaceful, schooling fish that prefer to be kept in groups of at least six or more. They are best suited for tanks with plenty of surface cover, such as floating plants, where they can feel secure. These fish are great for aquariums with other small, peaceful species, but due to their tendency to jump, a well-covered tank is essential. Ideal for beginner to intermediate aquarists, they thrive in well-maintained tanks with stable water conditions.
