    They school as well as regular rummy nose tetras, these fishes really do rank as one of the best choices for fishes that consistently school in an aquarium.

    The ones i have been keeping for the past few months school in perfect synchrony almost non-stop everyday, even when i'm not in the room and just peek at them from the doorway, i see them still schooling. They only break formation when feeding... or sleeping.

    I'm referring to the platinum rummy nose tetras... they are the ones which school very well, and they like to swim out in the open in front of the tank, hence are very active and visible.

    Galaxy rasboras don't school, they may shoal in groups if chased or stressed, but usually just scatter and swim around on their own. Very nice fishes but also very shy though, they hide whenever they detect movement outside the tank.

    The platinum rummy nose tetras i've been keeping are quite hardy and adaptable to different water parameters... i currently have one group in a planted tank with ADA Amazonia aquasoil at pH 6.4-6.6, and another group in a tank with Sudo Reef sand at pH 7.0-7.2, both groups of fishes are healthy and very active, some have grown quite noticeably too. No losses so far.

    I tried to take photos of them but they keep swimming so fast my phone camera isn't quick enough to capture them, all i get is blur sliver lines in the photos.

    Maybe i'll take a video of them schooling instead and post it up soon, it'll capture a better effect... probably after i do a long over-due maintenance on one of their tanks tomorrow.

    My tanks have been converted to ultra-low maintenance setups so the plant growth is literally measured in months, instead of weeks. They are the setup-and-forget type of tanks. Everything develops at slow pace so not much to update.

    I just did an update for one of my tanks... so just re-posting the video here for easier reference:



    Switch to HD quality in the player settings for much clearer viewing.

    You will notice the rummy nose tetras will usually see a "leader" swimming in a certain direction, then all of them start to follow.

    I'd have to say that these fishes do prefer longer tanks, i find that even the 2ft tank i have them in is abit too short, they only swim a short distance and then have to turn around again. A 3ft or longer tank would be great for these type of schooling fishes.
