Tetras with severum and heckilli

[drab808]

I have a 55 gallon tank with 2 red severums and 2 heckilli and was wondering if I could put my tetras with them??

What kind of tetras?

 

[drab808]

Neon, red eye, black neon??

If your Heckelii are full grown 8" to 10" they might snack on the neons if they can catch them.

I definitely wouldn't keep neons or black neons with them. Lemon, red eye, buenos aires, bleeding heart, etc. should be ok. There are never any guarantees.

Emperor tetras are nice.

Congos get big for tetras. They should work.

 

[severum mama]

Those are both good ideas. Emps and Congo are both robust, tough fish that should grow too large to be eaten.
