    thanks everyone, i got 6 total, and i got 2 more cory's so i now have 6 glowlight's and 3 cory's. I'm officially done with fish for this tank. I wish i could add some neon's in the mix, but there wouldn't be enough room. But at least when i eventually get that tank planted it will look better. I had to move my marigold to my 5 gal with the frogs because all of these fish in here were just to much energy for her and was stressing out pretty bad

    You have to see a school of Cardinal Tetras and then you will really be impressed!

    I have 2 glowlights with 8 Neon's and they school around with the Neon's. Glowlight's are cool fish. Especially when you have the light in your tank on...

    I have found out what my other tetra is it is a serpae tetra, which is strange because I got three others when it was just a lone little guy, the others schooled together, be it stayed away from them, and even chased them.

    any idea on this?

    Serpae's can be aggressive. If you have room try adding one or two more and they will start chasing each other instead.

    You should be able to take it back to the LFS and exchange it for another glowlight. Serpae Tetra's are really pretty when they get bigger. The will chase other fish though...
