They either totally dissapear one by one, or one seperates itself from the pack & dies, & they slowly all follow suit.

Its the one species of cheap fish that I can't seem to keep alive.

Maybe I'll get a few stuffed & throw them in my tank. lol

In fact they work out bloody expensive for me.

I can spend a tenner on them & they last a week!

It would cost me £520 to keep 10 for a year!

Bloody expensive.

They have been weakened by intensive farming. Wild-caught or responsibly captive-bred neons are quite hardy. Same with Angels, Guppies, Rams, Dwarf Gouramis and many others.
