I would have to say neons, which I hope to get a little later on when I set up my 60 gallon!!

At my work there is a 450 gallon tank with a school of 200 neons! it is the most beautiful thing ive ever seen

I really like the Bleeding Heart tetras, they're hard to kill.....yes, accidentally, of course.

Just curious...especially for the other category to learn of new tetras and also curious as to why. It seems some people don't like Tetras at all. I find them very easy to care for and an inexpensive burst of color if you buy several.

I like Red-Eye Tetras the best...But I do like Neons....I havea special spot in my heart for them because they are so cool looking.

No need to be embarrased - problem with common names.

voted other, i love blood fin tetras, love that light body and red fins (same reason i love the albino rainbow shark). rummy nose is second on the list, like the color scheme and patterning.

Hey, whats all this commotion?

Why do i see my name everywhere? Black Phantoms, Red Phantoms.... Personally, i voted for cardinals, they just seem better then neons. One day, i''ll have both and i'll see whats best.
