Does this cut the mustard with my cheap point and shoot!

I am looking for a tetra shoal to complement my current set up and wanted a deeper bodied tetra like the black widows or diamond tetra etc, any recommendations for peaceful types would be appreciated? Thanks.

Yes, the colour change depending on the angle of viewing seems more marked in this fish than my other tetras. Definitely Hemigrammus hyanuary. Are these quite unusual as never really seem them before? I can imagine the colouring being a bit subtle for some :rolleyes:

Thanks for the help which now makes me believe its a Hemigrammus hyanuary (January tetra). In my aquarium it appears to have a blue/silver/green/orange lateral line! All depends which way the light is reflecting off the scales. Nice fish and seems to have more colour than most of the washed out...

Sorry to be a pain but this is bugging me :blink: I have done my best to capture some further photos, however as you know it's not easy catching a silver bullet! Picasa web photos

I would agree if it were not for the strong green neon line down the lateral line :blink:

If it helps the fish have no red in the top of the eyes like a black neon. Definately not a black neon as that was my first thought but possilby a very close variation? Fed on live daphinia twice a week, tetra delica weekly, tetra pro colour (good stuff) and tetra prima the rest of the time.

Extremely happy and have been that colour for the last 3 months when I bought them. :good:

Hi, hope someone can identify this fish from the best photo I could get? Shop said it was a green line tetra :no: TIA [img=http://img221.imageshack.us/img221/8159/tetrasuk8.th.jpg][img=http://img221.imageshack.us/images/thpix.gif]

Thanks Wilder for your help,will update thread once treatment has hopefully had desired effect. Fingers crossed because he's a beauty.

Have both heater and internal flter for spare tank. Based in North Yorkshire and heading to Sheffield tomorrow so will do my best to find Interpet treatment. Do they still sell Waterlife treatments?

Thanks will pick up some medication tomorrow, any recommendations please? I have a quarantine tank that can be used as a treatment tank however could this cause more stress to him by the move? If its bacterial would the main tank not need treating any way? Thanks for your speedy replies.

Volume and Frequency of water changes:10% weekly I have 6 cardinal, 2 peppered corydoras, 2 keyhole cichlids, 6 while cloud minnows, 4 harlequins and 6 tetras (sold as green line tetras but I am still trying to identify them as not sure) plus the Ram. Aquarium is filtered by one internal jewel...
