Hi
I moved your thread out of the DIY forum into the fish ID forum.
Can you post a pic? It'll be near impossible to ID a fish without one.

Sorry, I know you didn't ask, but thre's a betta in there?
He really shouldn't be in a tank with nippy tetras. Sometimes their flowing fins are hard to resist or the betta could get aggressive with the tetras.
Here's our Betta Care Guide

Could it be a pristella or x-ray tetra? Hard to ID without pics, but google those and let us know

thanks lucy for moving it didnt know wher to post it i wll try to get a pic of it and thats what i told him too about the betta and yes he is aggressive all the other fish stay in a corner i think it is because his water temp is 65 and it needs to be 70-80 so i have an extra heater im going to give him to get it to the right temp he has had fish befor but they where oscers
