Do not get blueberry tetras. They are dyed.
 
240 gallon fish tank. in there now is tetras, barbs and 2 bn plecos. why not get blueberry tetra??
 
The reason you should not get a blueberry tetra is because theyre dyed, a process which is wrong and inhumane, which many people are against
 
Why you shouldn't buy them...

Dipping - As barbaric as dye injections seem, this practice is even worse. The fish are first put into a caustic solution that strips off their protective outer slime coating. They are then dipped in dye, or injected with dyes, after which they are dipped in another chemical that irritates the flesh to stimulate re-growth of the slime coat. This method is very stressful, and has a high mortality rate.

Fruit Tetras - Created by dipping the White Skirt Tetra, an albino morph of the popular Black Skirt Tetra. They are usually painted pastel colors and given fruit names such as, strawberry tetra, blueberry tetra, grape tetra, or simply mixed fruit. Some marketers have gone so far as painting the fish special colors for holidays. For example, red and blue dye is used to create a patriotic colored fish for the fourth of July. Orange dyed versions are sold with naturally colored black fish during the Halloween season.

How many of each? What kind of tetras? What kind of barbs? Your answers are too generic to enable members to advise constructively.
