rummy-nose tetra or are they?

[The-Wolf]

I have come accross some strange info on rummy-nose tetras.
It would seem that there are three seperate species that are
called rummy-nose tetras.


Hemigrammus bleheri

Rummy-nose tetra a.k.a. Firehead tetra
3.6 cm 23 - 26°C

Hemigrammus rhodostomus

(true)Rummy-nose tetra
5.0 cm tropical

Petitella georgiae

False Rummy-nose tetra a.k.a Rummy-nose tetra
3.9 cm 22 - 26°C


It would seem to me that I actually have firehead tetras
and not (true) rummy-nose.
Which ones do you have?
I wonder if anyone has the real rummy-nose

We got the same ones here ... firehead tetra I'm gonna keep calling it a rummy nose though

I can honestly say I've never seen the other 2 around here at all!
