Anyone seen or have these? I saw one in a huge planted show tank at Big Al's. They didnt' know what it was, but research seems to point to a Ruby Tetra.

They're very small, and nearly completely a bright clear red. Just beautiful. Does anyone know where to find them?

Here's the only picture I could find, but it doesn't show how truly gorgeous they are:

Hi Barbrella
They are very pretty fish!.... Maybe your LFS can order them for you? Have you googled it to find more info or if they may be known by another name?

here is a link with some information on your fish, the Ruby Tetra, aka: Axelrodia riesei.

Thanks! Sorry, I should have used the scientific name.

I guess I could ask at the fish store if they can get some.
