Paracheirodon axelrodi - Cardinal Tetra Pic: Jim M. (Me)
My first fish as a kid were Paracheirodon innesi - Neon Tetra. These started my love for #aquariums and #Characins in general. I've since learned over the years that Paracheirodon axelrodi - Cardinal Tetra are hardier, larger and more vibrant. I like to keep a school of around 30 in my 150g.
