Silver Hatchet

$16.00

Hatchet Fish is probably my favorite freshwater fish out there, especially the silver hatchet. They have a unique body shape with a nice bright body that easily stands out even to people who have not owned an aquarium. Usually, to do this you need much larger, more demanding fish like Oscars, eels or pufferfish. Yet the small body silver hatchet can draw the same attention, even more so when put in a school of eight or more. They enjoy moderate water flow, so a powerhead in the tank is certainly something to consider.

The Silver Hatchet can live for over five years, with the average being around four years. They will live longer when placed in a school of hatchets, as this will reduce the stress they feel while in the tank.
