i dont know about the gold pricela tetra but maybe this is the same fish...

Name: Hemigrammus rodwayi/Gold Tetra
Size 5 cm
Origin: Guiana
Ph: 7.0
Temp: 26 C

The Gold Tetra is a peaceful, hardy little amazon school fish, with a highly reflective silver body and a black spot on the tailfin base. Over the silver background there is usually a gold or copper powderlike coloration (thus the name), which is believed to be caused by internal parasites.
