    In the shop next to Ben's. Looks just like a neon/cardinal tetra, but yellow with a white line across.

    Any knows the name? Thanks a lot.

    If I'm not wrong, the fish could be boehlkea fredocochui. Check the fish's pict to satisfy yourself whether this is the right fish u saw at the lfs.

    b. fredcochui is known as the blue tetra, and it's not yellow, no line
    i suspect you could have seen an amelanistic version of the neon tetra

    I see, so they ARE neons/ cardinals.

    Anyone else saw them?

    Went down today, and they definitely look like cardinals / neons.

    But just to confirm, anyone else saw them?
