I love rummynose (I just with they weren't so damn expensive!!),

But.... I got some really cute gold neons the other day.

They are really a pale pink with the green/blue neon stripe and are absolutely gorgeous!

The reason I like black widows/black skirts, is because their feeding behaviour and the way they look
they look awesome IMO!

"Harelequin Rasboras "

They are not Tetras. They are cyprinids


They are the Asian equivelant of tetras...and they're still better than tetras.

Actually, I think Bleeding Hearts can look very attractive. Like Diamonds and Red Phantoms, however, they're one of those fish that look better against a light-colored backdrop than a dark one.

1) Buenos Aires
2) Penguin
3) Glowlights
4) Silvertips

I also like rummynoses, pristellas, emperors, and well, most of the tetras! I do NOT like bleeding heart tetras though, they just look nasty.

I personally like the red saepe tetra (not sure how to spell it). They are really pretty and have diffrent hues of orange and red.

I just can't choose - not with 80 or so species, all of them gorgeous!

If pushed, I'd have to put Cardinals, Rummies, Lemons, Rosies, Beckford's Pencil Fish and Kitty Tetras on my list, but as I said, every time I see good coloured specimens of a new tetra species I want them

(1) Cardinals
(2) Blue Emperors
(3) Cochu's Blues

Runner-ups (in no particular order): Diamonds, Glowlights, Red Phantoms, Januarys.

Also, if we add the very close relatives of Tetras, I'd put both the Three-Striped Pencilfish and the Red Arc Pencilfish up there among my top five (not sure quite what the order would be).
