Identify a tetra

[bp]

I came home with a bag of Von Rio Tetras today and this little guy
somehow snuck in the bag.

The picture is not great but what is it and will it do okay schooling
with the Von Rios?

Thanks

He's a silver tip tetra, I think. As long as he's shoaling with the Von
Rios and not pouting alone in the corner, he'll be fine.

Thanks Elaine. He seems to be getting along okay. I guess I'll go get a
few more silver tips if he becomes the outcast. At least now I know what
I have. The picture wasn't very good but with the name I was able to do
some looking on the net and that has to be what he is.
