Yes they are a tetra and hard to wean off any foods that are not live or at least meaty. They tend to be a loner also and do not school like most tetras but rather hang out near clumps of plants or underwater logs.

They are characins and usually go by the name of black darter tetras or black morpho tetras. Not a livebearer.
