Thought it would be an idea to list some of the tetras we have due to them being pretty good pleco tanks mates. Also include whether they are shy and whether they stick together. Pics would be great although it can be pretty difficult to get half decent pics of really small fish.
I have a group of 14 Rummynose Tetras.
Behaviour
Can be shy and seem to spend a lot of time near the bottom of the tank in the mornings and early afternoon. Become braver as the day progresses and spend much more time in the middle/top of tank late afternoon and evenings.
They do generally stick together as a group
They have a bright red nose and stripey black and white tail. When they are stressed or the water parameters aren't good, the red nose fades, also the stripes on the tail can fade. They are fairly hardy, ive had mine for around 18 months and haven't had any problems with them at all healthwise.
