    Just came back from TB Ben's shop, they have a tank of what he calls Brilliant Neon Tetra. Anyone know whats the scientific name for it?

    Really cool looking tetra's . Looks a like a blue rummy nose combined with a neon tetra. The head is neon blue while the body has only the red strip

    Probably the "brilliant" neon tetra or Paracheirodon innesi var is the least known diamond head Neon Tetra.They have existed via selective breeding in germany.

    Ben's shop is at Tiong Bahru market. You need to walk a bit to get there from TB MRT. Check the forums for directions.

    so the arent found in the wild?? its a man made cross breed?

    checked Aquajapan with the scientific name . They call it a "New Golden Neon Tetra" but the pic doesnt look much like the fish i saw

    gotta admit they are brilliant though...when they were caught and put in the pail they played dead and started swimming on their sides

    but they are still alife when put in the tank....

    Went there last Sunday but didn't know the shop name. Anyway all the fish names, they write in Chinese.
