I was just looking at an interesting page earlier today, I believe the
address was:

www.characin.com or www.characins.com

Had a few pictures of diamond tetra fry along with various info about
assorted tetras. Very nice page, and I only looked around it for a few
minutes.

Good Luck.

The old coppertetra has changed name, and I am not up to date on that. If
nana is the old marginata, it is a beautifull fish. Hardy, lively, colorfull
and not too hard to breed.
You might try this way:
Set up a glass tank of 10 to 30 L with water of TH+ADw-10, KH +AH4-1-2, temp.+AH4-25
celcius, a little peat and a small filter. and a plastic flies-net to save
the eggs. Let it run for 3-5 weeks shaded from sun with alu foil, no light.
Feed the pair heavily for a week with live brine shrimp, live cyclops and
small dapnia and drop them in the set up tank and whatch for eggs. When
mated(1-3 days), take parents out, add anti fungus ( or don+ALQ-t). Start
infusoria and start feed that when the larvae are swimming, for a few days.
After day 3, try a little newly hatched brine shrimp every day. When able to
eat that, stop infusiria

Good luck
Ole
