Did you say you don't like glowlights?

 

[allaboutfish]

not really i like white or really colorful, but in the end i might do it.

 

[Fishkeeper26]

Neon, x-ray, cardinal, phantom, plenty of others

 

[Fishkeeper26]

Glassfish, Adonis, penguin

 

[allaboutfish]

i love phantoms but theyre nippy

 

[Fishkeeper26]

i love phantoms but theyre nippy

I haven't had them personally so I wouldn't know haha, I just started naming colorful ones

 

[allaboutfish]

what about lemon tetras? are they peaceful? anybody got experience with these?

 

[Fishkeeper26]

No experience but they look nice

 

[adadkins1]

I think Lemons are known to be a bit nippy. I personally love my Glowlight tetras. Their stripe glows bright, and they are about the most laid back fish I have ever seen. It is important to keep any tetra in a fairly large school, or else they will be aggressive. I would say you could probably get a way with 8, and this would keep them peaceful.

 

[allaboutfish]

but they have red and i have alot of red already.

 

[allaboutfish]

what about gold pristella tetras

 

[Fishkeeper26]

Glassfish?

 

[adadkins1]

I see what you mean now. I would suggest just going to Mongabay and just looking at some you like. Hopefully that way you could get an idea of most of the tetras available.

 

[Fishkeeper26]

I have gold pristellas, mine are very peaceful hvent had any problems at all with them

 

[adadkins1]

Gold Pristella tetras are said to be very peaceful.

 

[allaboutfish]

hmm those are the ones then

 

[Fishkeeper26]

Very good choice
