Are Black Skirts ? Black widows


Cause they look alike but the diffrence is there tales are more fancier and look alittle wider

I have seen Black Skirt Tetras referred to as Black Widows many times on many different sites. The pic you are looking at may be of a hi-fin Black Skirt. The fins are a little more fancy looking, but they are the same thing as far as I know. If I'm wrong I'm sure some one will correct me

Same fish, and as Gabe said, there is a longer finned variety available, just like with the danios. I believe that the infamous "white skirt tetras" are also technically the same fish, just an albino version. These are the ones they dye and call "fruit tetras". Still the same fish, though.
