the description sounds fine, the picture is downright strange.

why I don't do garden hybrids and aquarium strains: natural species is a history of Nature, while hybrids are just the whims of Man.

I think it is due to the tank lights. The orange stripe is natural, Eddy.
Oh, and it is a relatively commonly seen tetra in LFSs...

NONO! they don't have it. only the usual glowlight.Originally Posted by Justikanz
wonder ..is it cause by UV Light
In that case, it should the lighting and the angle of shoot that causes the purplish coloration...Had not heard any cases of dyeing the glowlight tetra...

The 'normal/natural' glowlight tetra was one of my first fish.![]()
P-L-E-C-O-R-Y=M-A-N-I-A!!! YEAH!
FLORENCE, capital of the region of Tuscany, has a population of around half a million inhabitants, spreads on the banks of the Arno, between the Adriatic and the Tyrrhenian seas, almost in the middle of the Italian peninsula. It is a city which bustles with industry and craft, commerce and culture, art and science.
if it's due to UV light. will it affect plant growth?Originally Posted by Justikanz
Maybe there is a problem with the pictures white balance, never seen a dyed glowlight b4 before.
Edit: Please avoid SMS lingo. Thanks!![]()

I don't think anybody can be bothered to dye a 40 cents fish.
i'm thinking aloudbut if you use an actinic light would that not give the fish the effect thats in the pic shown?.
