    There is a simliar fish called Microrasbora Nana. I cant differentiate the 2 by the way.

    When I have them, they dun school either and are a bit on the timid side.

    I got 5 from C328 months ago. I dun see them carrying them nowadays.
    Lost my last specimen when it jumped out of the tank becoming crispies on the floor last week ...

    Under the correct lighting, the neon green is very attractive indeed.

    Biotope used to have them rather recently if I recall correctly.
    Can check with Thio whether can bring in, if interested.

    Have seen a tank filled with fish labelled as green tetras in Seaview at Jalan Kayu. 60cts each, less for 25/50/100 bulk purchases
