I have around a dozen of these little guys; several of them I bought in 2008. They are even more beautiful today. The picture here does no justice to them. A word of advice, they look best against lush green plants. I moved mine to a biotope/driftwood-dominant set-up. Though they are pretty, the color does not show off as well as in a well-planted. The are terrific schoolers, especially if you have a larger fish in with them (e.g., platy, active corydoras, etc). One of my all time favorites.

Just bought 9 of these little guys last week. One died with in an hour. The rest are out and about all day schooling and will eat anything you feed them. I cant beleive the diffrence in the coloring from when I saw them at the pet shop and now. Do yourself a favor if you see them buy them you will be very happy
