What type of Fish is this? - Aquarium Advice

-=Jeff=- · 09-06-2006, 10:33 PM

Below is a fish I got at PET Smart about a month ago.. it was in with the Buenos Aires Tetra (which I have a pair of). It looks like a Rainbow but I am not sure.. I was curious to find out what it is so I can get a second one..

Here it is to get a comparision to one of my Blakc Skirt Tetras..

Sorry the pictures are dark.. not sure how to get good tank pictures with a digital camera.

Yeah, definitely looks like some sort of danio. What would you estimate its size is?
