I've had a few of each. They're not expensive at all.

The tetra will be more expensive than the platys. Don't get just one tetra; they like to be kept in groups of 6 or more. In my opinion, you should just get the platys.

In the aquarium, biodiversity is bad.

very cheap and when youv'e had them a short while that platy's will give you even cheaper ones.

Good point, most livebearers are completely free once you've bought a couple.

Here, the tetras are $3 and the the platies form $1-$2.
