Tetra Id Needed

[sbga]

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)

I think it is a Gymnocorymbus ternetzi.

Hi,

I agree with invaderwith a key. unfortunately white skirts are often sold as fruit tetras where they are injected with pink, blue, green etc dyes to make them more colourful. I have some white ones myself and they shoal with the black ones, mine were white when i got them though and are nice without the dyes. They do best in a shoal of 6+
