Just for fun, there are at least two species called Rummy Nose Tetra.
Hemigrammus bleheri (http://www.aqua-fish.net/show.php?h=rummynosetetra) as mentioned above, and Hemigrammus rhodostomus (http://www.aqua-fish.net/show.php?h=rummynosetetra1). Of course, these fish have more common names in my opinion...
