CorydorasEthan Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Wow I've never heard of the red-finned penguin before, but it does look cool! Currently, my favorites are the Congo tetra, the emperor tetra, and the black neon tetra. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JettsPapa Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 34 minutes ago, Colu said: You can't go wrong with x-ray tetras They're one of my favorites also (except for the two albinos I got in with the others; it's my own fault for telling the guy at the store that I wanted all of their pristella tetras, and then not watching him catch them). I'm also a big fan of serpae tetras, black neon tetras, and lemon tetras. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morphy1701 Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Colombian Blues by far. I love them! My mini-piranhas. I just put a group of Serpae's in the tank and like them a lot as well. I think Rummy Nose are beautiful and would love to have some of those in the future, but I have never seen them in a store down here in Florida. Also, FYI, my Serpae's have finally decided to actually swim as a school instead of running all over the place and they make a dynamic addition to the tank. You know what? i could have just said I like tall tetras and not skinny torpedo-like tetras and gotten my point across. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlaneFishGuy Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 (edited) I like the Ember and Glowlight Tetras; they always jump out at me even in the bare tanks at big box stores. The redfin penguin posted above is really sharp looking. Edited March 4, 2021 by PlaneFishGuy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrozenFins Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 A big school of neon tetras in a planted tank is STUNNING! Silvertip Tetras are really cool because of how "playful" they are. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colu Posted March 4, 2021 Author Share Posted March 4, 2021 (edited) I like the different colours between male and females in silvertip tetras @JamesB Edited March 4, 2021 by Colu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanked Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 My favorite for the moment are the Bloodfin Tetras. I'm seriously considering a small group of Embers in the near future. @JamesB mentioned the visual appeal of a big school of Neons. Neons or Cardinals could top my list if I get the planted tank to cooperate. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FriendlyLoach Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Itś nothing fancy but I love cardinal tetras, and red phantom tetras. I think the white at the tips of the red fins remind me of a brook trout! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlyingFishKeeper Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Idk why, but I love the classic tetras like the neon tetra, and rummy nose (As soon as I get anything larger then a 20 gallon I really want to get one of those tetras (or a Macropodus ocellatus)) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
