i know that I souldn't keep him alone but 1 died of neon tettra desis and 1 has it so its in a seperate tank but i think the neons at the petstore may have had it so thats why im thinking about black neons

Probably not. Schools usually form based on shape and color. While these two are the same shape the color is different enough to usually prevent schooling.

neons are not the only fish that can die from neon tetra disease. Neons are just more likely to get it after i had some neons die my glowlight tetras caught it too. when i was left with just 4 i waited 6 months before adding any more fish and then went and got some guppies cuz im done with tetras And no different kinds of tetras will not school together

I don't think there would be any problems. Fish generally will school with each other with no problems. As long as you don't put something like Angelfish in with them. You will only have angelfish in the morning. They will eat your tetras.

No and if the neon tetra is been kept on his own he wil probibly die due to stress

No, they will only school with their own species, not their genus.
