Remarks: Blue emperor tetras (Inpaichthyskerri) are a perfect community fish due to their medium size, stunning colors, and sexual dimorphism. Both genders have bluish-silver bodies and a thick navy band along their lateral line. Males turn a slight purple color and gain an iridescence along their body. Males will dart around the tank quickly, flaring their fins towards other males, creating an amazing display of activity and color.
