Hey all. I was wondering how cardinal tetras would hold up in a 20 gallon aquarium. i am planning on making it a tank solely for the purpose of housing cardinals. How many could Iput in this tank? What kind of a habbitat should they have? I absolutely love these fish and would like as much information about them as possible. thank you all very much for your time.

First off, the majority of the cardinals are wild caught. They would like a well planted tank, with lots of hiding places(in the plants) and a large area for swimming around in. Were you just going to have cardinals or also some corys and maybe some oto cats? I hope this helps.

allowing 2g for each cardinal tetra, you could fit 10 in that tank's bioload if they are the only fish in there.
