Yes, I don't see Black Neon Tetras listed

 

[fozzy_wozzy_woo]

Um NO 2 is a black neon tetra.

 

[Lateral Line]

The classic book on Characins is Géry "Characoids of the World" my edition has almost 700 pages about tetras. There are quite a few....

 

[JobySp]

I have some Platinum Tetras (Hemigrammus vorderwinkleri) - do they come under a different name?

 

[kmurph]

I like Green Fire Tetras (Rathbun's Tetras) and Cardinals the best with Silvertips NIPPING in close behind Sorry I don't have any pics to add.

 

[fozzy_wozzy_woo]

ok i have updated it..

 

[Auratus]

They should add this to the pinned topics.

Oh, by the way the fish you have under flame tetra, also known as von rio tetra, isn't one. This is a flame tetra

One of mine with a danio. You can't really see it that well, so small

Under dwarf neon tetra you have a rainbow fish, I'm confused.
And you have black skirt tetra on there twice. Good list! You spent a lot of time! Now add care sheets lol, that would be hard. Good job

I bet if you were SUPER bored and had no life you could get pics of all those fish.

The forum should starta section where members post care sheets for fish that they made with pictures! I would like to do one on balloon mollies or Auratus.

 

[JobySp]

I bet if you were SUPER bored and had no life you could get pics of all those fish.

LOL - was thinking about doing that!

And yeah - I agree with the caresheets but in some species of fish, there are that many types, all the pinned posts would take up the first 6 sheets of the forum

 

[fozzy_wozzy_woo]

wow what a list....

it will take me some time to collect all teh pics but i will doit.... aaaahhhhhhh Phsyic...

 

[snowyangel]

The strawberry tetra you listed is not its own species. Its called the white skirt tetra. These can be long finned or just reg. finned. Often stores will dye then pink or blue and call them"strawberry or blueberry tetras" to attract customers. I have them and they're beautiful Here's my big boy:
