I used to have neon tetras. They glow under black light. :D

They need a heater and a filter. They are also schooling fish, and you need to have a few of them, probably at least four to six.

They eat regular flake fish food, although you can buy special color food for tetras that bring out their colors more.

Beta Fish-You cant have two or more in one tank because they fight to the kill....they dont need a pump or anything like that....they are really easy to care for fish!all they need is a fish tank with of course water in it and food!they are beautiful fish as well!I will send you a pic of the tank we had our Beta in.....these things that I have listed are all the basics..but will give you more info!:)
