Name That Tetra!
“I wonder if these lighter fish are female? Do they have a deeper or wider body? If you look down at them rather that viewing from the side.”
Nope, pretty much exactly the same. They also look nothing like the Black Neons - the gold stripe I saw in the dark is not visible during the day. See below for more…
“Just from your verbal description of the fish, I wonder if it could be a glowlight tetra. The shiny ‘neon’ stripe on glowlights is usually an orange-red but with your fish being new and not yet fully comfortable in their new home, maybe the strip is not quite this color yet.”
I’ve had them a year ![]()
I just checked and they have a red dot and a black dot on the base of their tail, but their bodies appear entirely gray in the daytime.
I got a pic but it’s blurry - but you can see the eye (on the left) and the tail (on the right): http://www.realitybbq.com/personal/080427.tetra.jpg
