Hi,

I wonder if you can id those fish. At the pet store they were labeled as Chinese Tetra. The clerk told me Chinese Neon Tetra. I searched both on the internet and i came uo empty. The closer i could find it's bloodfin tetra but that is not exactly it.

I tried to take a pic from the bag. They lost colors too because they are stressed

Not too sure. They get black and an stripe when they start to relax. It looks more like White clound minnow to be honest.

Maybe they are and they mislabeled them as Chinese Tetra or Chinese Neon Tetra since White Clound Minnow are cold water fish and can live with Goldfish. Goldfish are really popular in China.

Yes i started them in a breeder trap. I'm so afraid my giants or gold barbs are going to eat them. would really be nice to have a "Large" school of let say 25 of those swimming around in the plants. I like a big school of small fish.
