I seem to be hearing a lot about how unstable neon tetras are these days. Many people urge to get cardinals insted of neons, but cardinals also get a lot bigger.
Do you have any thoughts on this?
I have a 20 gallon long tank and want to add a school of neons, but I'm getting kind of nervous after reading some comments on them. I have pretty hard water, so that's a down side. I'm afraid if I go with cardinals that the tank will be overstocked.
Also, as a side question, can neons school with gold neons? I saw some gold (albino, I beleive) neon tetras the other day and thought they looked nice. Could I get 2 gold and 4 regular neons and would they school?
