About the Cover
Beautiful colors, elaborate finnage, and a substantial size (4 inches) make the Congo tetra Phenacogrammus interruptus an extremely popular fish. A school of these handsome fish can be the star attraction in a large community aquarium. And yes, those are teeth in our cover model’s mouth! This is the only African tetra regularly produced by commercial hatcheries, and one of the species covered this month in Ted Judy’s “Large Tetras of West Africa” (p. 62).

Tip of the Month:
Need some micro foods for an unexpected batch of fry? Dump the floss from a dirty filter into the fry tank! The babies will graze on the numerous microorganisms and tiny particles of detritus.
