Comments: This Pretty Tetra has hidden under a bush, and is standing there immobile. It might be hiding from the sun, or perhaps it has had a fright, or maybe it is merely resting. For fish do not go to sleep like we do; they simply stop swimming for a while. They choose a cosy, secluded spot, and stand still in it, like this Pretty Tetra who isn’t moving, not even a single fin. You might pass him by if it wasn’t for his tail, shining like a torch.
