Congo Tetras

[steady]

anyone that knows about these beautiful tetras? how they can damage live plants if they are fed every day properly?how many in a 55g?most of my plats are hard<like crinum or java fern> but i have some like ceratopteris and Hydrocotyle leucocephala that i love, specially leucocephala...
do u think that if they are well fed they will destroy these plants?

thank you in advance Kostas

I would say about 8 in a 55gal.

Mine are in a heavily planted tank and i have never seen them touch the plants.
