They are as good as what you feed the tetras. Make sure you QT them all the same, as they can still have parasites.

My fish love tetras. Never had a problem with feeding them. But you should still treat them as a feeder.

Also, I think it looks a lot better having neons swimming around my amazon tank than having minnows or rosies in there.

There almost isn't a fish out there that won't enjoy a Neon as a tasty, delicious snack. My Angel pinned them against the glass in a mad rush the first time she saw them.
My wife almost FREAKED.

well i bought 10 little ones cuz my fish are still youngsters but i figured they shud learn to hunt a little before they get old. so i quarantined this fishies for a couple days wit some general tonic to make sure they had no parasites... threw them in the tank n none of my fish even noticed the damn things...
after 20 mins of waiting i needed to pee so i went to pee... came back n they were all gone...
now i still havent seen my babies hunt n i dun even know which ones at them...

Much better than goldfish and rosies.
