trying to ID a fish. no pic

[Kigs!]

they look like a freshwater tetra fish. very tiny, but i think they are in the Apogon sp. family. clear transparent body. single or double red horizontal line down the body. blue tail? i think eye might also have red highlights... saw it at a LFS once, never seen it since. the guy said he rarely gets'em in...but they look just perfect for a nano. any ideas?

sounds like a cardinal fish I have seen except don't remember the tail being blue

finally found a pic.

anyone seen'em before? found some on a japanese site called cpfarm.com...they called it neontenjikudai. now to find an american vendor that sells these... to translate the japanese site, use google website translate to browse...

my LFS had them a few weeks ago, I think they called them red spot cardinal or something close.

HTH
