I am looking for a school of Diamond Tetras, preferably from a fellow hobbiest.

Try the wetspot- delivery charges are very steep using overnight but they have really nice quality fish.

As I said in my original post, I am looking to get them from a fellow hobbiest. I have had bad luck buying fish from online fish stores. I bought a pleco from Wet Spot and it died the next day.

I used to have lemon tetras, head-tail light tetras, ember, and others multiply like crazy in my tank and I'd give them away... but haven't tried diamonds yet. OC, I have a really good local shop that frequently has some... I can try adding a small school to see if they follow suit? Sounds like you want them faster but throwing that out as possible contingency plan

Elliot, I've missed you. I had diamond tetras about 10 years ago, while I did not try to breed them they still did. Nice thing about them is that they can tolerate warmer temps and they are really attractive. Try them out of you want to��
