Scratched Kerri Tetra (Inpaichthys parauapiranga)

The Scratched Inpa Tetra (Inpaichthys parauapiranga) is a rare and visually stunning relative of the popular Kerri Tetra. This tank-bred variety features a delicate peach-to-copper body coloration highlighted by a shimmering blue-violet lateral stripe, creating a luminous effect that shifts with lighting and surroundings. Peaceful, active, and easy to care for, this small schooling tetra is an excellent choice for planted community aquariums and biotope-style tanks inspired by Brazil’s clearwater stream habitats.
