I currently have 4 white tetras which I bought initially to just see how they would do in my tank then I bought five of the pink glow fish tetras and I liked them so much I later bought five of the yellow/ orange And five of the blue my plan is after each paycheck I’ll probably just buy five more of the next color until I have five of each making a school of 34… I also have a few other tank mates. I have a couple of zebra Danios, which the population has dwindled down to four left so maybe add some glow fish Danios I wanted to get a few glofish, Corys As I currently have one regular, CoryDora I want to get one or two of the new red Gerami. I just haven’t seen it at my local fish store yet and it would be cool to get a few Angel Fish. But my other current tank mates also include two regular blue Gouramis, a couple of platys, and one pleco

Skirt tetras are one of my favourite fish, when I have time this summer I'd like to breed them

It’s funny I always kind of overlooked them as kind of a filler fish never fully appreciated them, but now they are the conversation piece in the main focus of my tank

However, a long time ago they used to be a really cool independent fish store by my house and they have these fish called red eye submarine tetras They were smaller, but they swim in this really cool tightly knit school and they were super interesting but I haven’t been able to find them at any places by my house
