Balloon Lamp Eye Tetras

Seeing I have never seen them before in any LFS or on-line sales, I wanted to make sure other people know about them. And they pretty much stay schooled. I have them in my 210 right now, only with 2 german blue rams and to bushynose plecos. They almost always remain in the one school, although they have broken off into 2 schools several times. However, with me moving, they quickly darted away in back into the one.

Here is a quick video of them in my tank (restating tank after tear down, so don't look at tank, look at the fish lol).

They are schooling nicely! I want to get a nice school of something in my heavily planted 55gal. I was thinking rummies, but these guys now have my interest piqued, too. I think they might be a bit larger than I'm looking for, though.
