Does anybody know if congos are bad fin nippers? They'll be in a tank with an angelfish and i don't want them to shred his fins.

Congos need big tanks, and looking from your previous stocking list I think you should just stick to what you have right now.

I've read they only get about 3 inches. The congos won't change my stocking list though. They're a tetra but i'm not sure which type i'm adding. Although if you say they're to big i'll take your word and get a different type.

It's not that they get too big, it's just the equivalent of keeping cheetahs in a jail cell :) sorry bad analogy
 
Umm... not trying to shoot down what everone is saying but it is an 80 gallon aquarium. That is large enough for a small school of congos.
