Tetra Fishes

Tetra Fishes
Bought 11 tetra fishes recently. Found that they were really cute and shy. They were staying with my big marble angle fish, 1 remaining molly and 3 platy in a 2ft tank. The tetra would always tried to avoid contact with the marble angle fish but when food was around, they would swim out openly to feast. They swam in group and would always tried to stay in a group probably due to their small size. Hardly could see their eyes and mouth.

The fishes had colours that were neon bluish and greenish. The gills and the tail section were red in colour with the main body in silver. Amazed by the colours of these fishes.

1 died on the day of purchase with its head bitten off.

The fish reminds me of ikan bilis (anchovy).
