Post by: Jmonaghan10 on May 26, 2015, 05:41:51 PM

Hi Guys n girls I got 6 new fish, the yellow or golden ones with a black tail but I'm unsure what type they are, I suspect tetras and thought they were ember but not I don't. Does anybody recognise them

Hi Jim,

They look like silver tip tetras to me. Very nice fish, but can be a little nippy in smaller numbers. :)

You only have to fill in the boxes the first couple of times then you don't have to do it again.

well that's a comfort, I just hate typing I'm so bad at it.

Fish have been positively identified as silver tip tetras and they are awesome, thanks everyone

Just to add that the boxes are to deter automated spammers. Once you have posted a few times, you won't get the boxes. You can see from my post count that it is quite a long time since I had to fill in the boxes; I've forgotten just how many posts you need  :-[
