for sure it is a gold tetra. i have a large school in one of my aquariums. i know the gold can fade, but i thought the red above and below the black dot on the tail stayed. mine are about a year old. i hear if you put a few more in there they will retain their gold luster. when stressed, or in a too small a school they lose the gold and become silver to even transparent.
that is correct, the parasite is what they belive gives off it's goldish sheen. however, i have read that the parasite never leaves, and that if you put wild caught with tank breed ones the tank breed will also go gold.
