LOL this thread is like a year old!! Thanks for the reply, I now have an African Cichlid tank and a Gourami Tank, I hate Tetras now...

I would agree with an earlier post and limit the tank to 2 or 3 species of tetra so you can see the schooling behaviors

... I hate Tetras now...

Out of curiosity - why is that ?

Way too much work to get the water parameters right.

tetras are very adaptable. the water has to be healthy, but it is not difficult to keep them. i have had glolight tetras, blue tetras, and silvertips and all have done very well.

lemon tetras are really nippy

Lemon Tetras are fine. They are great additions to a community tank.
