hello
i was wondering what types of fishes can Cardinal Tetras stay with? I currently have in my 29 gallon tank one 4.5" Angelfish, one 4" blue gourami, one dwarf male gourami, one female dwarf gourami, one oto cat, on dwarf curvicep cichlid, 2 plecos, one black skirt tetra, 3 scissor tail rasboras, one paradise gourami, and one albino skirt tetra. My Angelfish doesn't kill the fishes but when I put in my scissor tail rasboras, the angel didn't really bother trying to go after eating them. Even though the Angelfishs' mouth is big enough to swallow the rasboras. Also, I try to prevent too much stress from enveloping the fishes by doing partial water changes (5 - 10%) and on Fridays I will always do a gravel wash. I do the same for my 4 other tanks. 90, 55, 100, 150. So I guess I have 5 tanks with the 29 gallon ![]() All my tanks are filled with live plants, and I stick to swords, and I have water sprites too and I always keep them rooted in the gravel. I don't use any special substrate for my plants or anything like that.. just normal gravel that is easy to siphon. I have some snails too but I think they died out from my Gouramis eating them... I saw a one a few days ago. So I guess I put in too much information but I hope anyone can help me. |

But once I do, I'll be right back on this forum! |

If you get larger cardinals they probably will be fine, though as the angel grows it may pick off some of the cardinals.
I'd rather, though, see you add a couple Skirt tetras. They're schooling fish too and would do better with the company. But - it is, of course, your tank! |

I have 5 cardinal tetras rooming with 3 sunburst platys in a 10 gallon and they all get along just fine.
