Overview
Fluorescent GloFish® have expanded to also include the new line of Tetras which also come in two neon colors: Electric Green®, Sunburst Orange®. GloFish® are not dyed and their color, which is inherited from their parents, does not fade!
Original generations of GloFish® were genetically enhanced as embryos to help detect environmental pollutants and advance scientific research. Now every generation of GloFish® is born with its amazing color! The brilliant hues are produced by a fluorescent protein gene which occurs naturally in some marine organisms.
Keeping GloFish® is as easy as keeping Tetras. For best care, keep this peaceful fish by themselves in small aquariums or in small schools with equally non-aggressive fish. Since they are omnivores, feed GloFish® a varied diet of flake and frozen foods.
