How many Cardinal tetras could I put in a 35 gallon tank versus a 55 gallon tank? I have an AQ 70 on the tank I was just curious as two the two differing sizes.
Cardinal tetras stay small. Based on a tank with no other fish in it, IMO, 1 cardinal for each 1.5 gal. is a safe stocking level. OS.
Is it okay to hard scape with Cardinals? My idea was a black background, white sand substrate, and a few large pieces of Texas holey rock in the center with amazon swords on both sides in the back, also a 6 inch bubble wall. Would they be okay in a hard scape such as that with ample room to swim, and a break in the middle of the tank?
Just curious as to why the no on the white substrate? I like the black substrate its just hard to decide. I thought that the white substrate would make the colors pop, maybe im wrong.
I suggest you go with neons instead. They're hardier.
