I've had Green fire tetras, and there wasn't anything particularly
notable about them in regards to tetra behaviour. They resembled young
Penguin tetras in shape, motion and activity level, but were a bit more
reclusive, like Cardinal tetras. I can't put too fine a point on it
because a different batch might behave slightly differently (a lot
depends on the age you get them and their tankmates). They are a bit
uncommon and the quality will vary a lot, so it's a matter of luck
sometimes. If you keep Hatchets well, then the Green Fire tetras would
be a breeze, but watch your cave tetras as they can dispatch a small
tetra easily. hth

Hey all. Im a new guy. Im in Selkirk, Manitoba. I have two aquariums up
right now, a Ten gallon and a 22 gallon; both are planted. I own Marble
hatchets, Zebras, corys, swords, Blind cave tetras as well as Black Rosy
and Chinese barbs. Can anyone tell me about green fire tetras? Im not
intrested in stocking any yet but they have always grabbed my attention.
Thanks.
