Yes! When I was about twelve years old, we introduced two goldfishes (we won them at a church bazaar) into the tank with a variety of tropical fishes. The tropicals were all dead (skeletons at the bottom of the tank) the very NEXT DAY. It was horrible.
It is not recommended to keep neon tetras with large goldfish. Goldfish are coldwater fish while neon tetras are tropical fish, meaning they have different temperature and water quality requirements. Additionally, goldfish can be aggressive and may try to eat the smaller neons. It's best to keep fish with similar needs together to ensure their well-being.
You could have a school of neon tetras (approx 6), or 1 fancy goldfish
No, neon tetras have very short tails.
i wouldnt recommend it as neon tetras should be kept in schools of 5 and the stress couldnt easily kill the tetra

Yes,Neon tetras and catfish live together well.
Neon tetras thrive best in a tank that is at least 10 gallons in size. The ideal tank size for neon tetras is around 20 gallons, as this provides them with enough space to swim and socialize comfortably.
Neon Tetras do very well in soft and slightly acidic water. If there are a couple of Neon Tetras left, it may be best to quarantine them in a separate tank.
Neon tetras can be both male and female. The main difference between the two is that male neon tetras are usually slimmer and have a more vibrant coloration, especially on their fins. Female neon tetras tend to be rounder and have a more subdued coloration.
No.
neon tetras live at standard tropical aquarium temperatures, but a good place to start is about 76 degrees Fahrenheit
Neon tetras should not eat betta food as it may not provide them with the necessary nutrients they need for their health. It is best to feed neon tetras a diet specifically formulated for them to ensure their well-being.
