	blue-red columbian tetras
niggit Fish Addict Posts: 631 Kudos: 282 Votes: 0 Registered: 29-Jan-2003	hello! just wondering if anyone has any long-term experience with these fish. i have had 6 for about 4 months, and they are now about full grown. are they a more aggressive tetra? just wondering because i've had a few fish disappear, and they look like they could pack a mean bite if they wanted to. they look like they've got an underbite like a bulldog!

They sometimes are, but i have a feeling they are breeding since 2 of them always guard the plant, and chase the other away, but this isnt constantly since the eggs probably get eaten within a few hours
