Blind Cave Tetra

Blind Cave Tetra

The exotic blind cave fish were discovered in a completely dark cave in Mexico. Also known as a Mexican Tetra, Blind Cave Tetra or Blind Fish, these fish don't have eyes or pigmentation. This unusual looking fish is a bit nippy as it tends to overcompensate, but generally fits well in community tank as long as there's good room to swim. These fish are very active as they troll for food and explore their surroundings - interesting additions to the fish tank.
