I have 3 Neon Tetras- they tend to school together... my Glolight Tetra schools with them from time to time but not all that often.
They all schooled together in the tank at the store (which is how I ended up with 3 neons and 1 glolight!)... do I need another glolight or will he be OK? He has one spot he tends to hang out in by himself...
Also one of my neons is taking on the same look as a pregnant guppy... should I be concerned? (This very well could be the greedy one who eats faster than everybody else and goes and has some algae wafer too.. haven't fed yet today and it looks a little more normal)
I have 2 Cory Cats as well. one is dark spotted and one is mostly silver- male/female? or is the silvery one too young to have spots yet? He/she is EXTREMELY active and zooms all over the tank- doesn't stick very close to the bottom unless he/she's looking for food.
And for my final question!... I have heard conflicting things about tetras and bettas- it's an 8gal tank and could really use a 'focal point' fish... the tetras tend to hang out together and the cories are generally in the plants or under the driftwood. If a betta would not work in this tank, what is another more extravagantly colored fish that would?
Thanks guys!
