It sounds like stress from being in too small of a group. Tetras need to be in groups of 6 or more or else they will get stressed.

My tetras are a bit feisty as well. Separate the rough one for a day and then see if when you put him back with the others, he does better. If he's just being cranky today, give him time to chill alone.

big tank for 5 fish. It's perfectly normal behavior

Add another tetra. If that doesn't work, remove the violent one.
