Neon and other...

[Koda]

Was wondering if neon and glo light tetras will school together or not?The guy at the store said they won't but I'm not sure he really knows fish.He was going to get fish out and didn't have water ready.My kid spoke up and the guy said it didn't matter.Not sure the fish would agree

IME most like sized tetras will shoal together. They will do their own thing but will also gather with the group on many occasions as well. Ieven have a cory that thinks it's a neon

My neons only schoaled when I added them into the tank. After couple of days, they got comfortable, and they no longer schoal. Two of them always stay alone at different corners, the other two fight all the time near the middle of the tank, and one of the stay hiding near the rear of the tank....
