I got this fish as a gift and I do not know what kind it is, although I know it's some kind of tetra. It's very bright neon blue and silver and has a pinkish orange spot on its head, kind of like a brain. It might be a color injected fish, i dont know. here is a pic, sorry about the quality(its not the rosy barb)

Could be a bleeding heart? Going by what you said. Bleeding Hearts are a pink with a red spot on its body.. And is similar shape to your photo.
 
i have a bleeding heart tetra, it's not that. It doesnt have the same fins or the red spot. i think it might be the skirted tetra with dye injection.....
 
It may be a black skirt tetra the white form. Cant spell the scientific name sorry
 
No, the picture doesnt really do it justice. It's silver with bright blue tone
 
Looks like a dyed white form of Gymnocorymbus ternetzi, (Black Widow, Black Skirt), a species commonly used for dying.
