Cardinal Tetras - Fin Nippers?

[gaz gun man]

hey all, think of getting a school of cardinals for my tank, are they likely to nip fins or the feelers on my gourami?

Hi

I have a shoal of 8 Cardinals, 2 gold Gourami's and 3 honeys. There has never been a problem with nipping. They all get on really well (the tank is well planted though).

Just make sure to get a decent size shoal of Tetras, In my tank (which is about 140 L) I have found that they keep themselves to themselves
