Red Tail + Perruno Cats With Neon Tetras?

[Jamesvfr]

Hi all

Something ive been wondering for a while is what my 2 cats would do if i had some tetras in the tank with them?

I love the big cats but would also be nice to have so busy small colourful fish swimming about + make a nice colour addition
Ive been thinking they may be ok as i saw some red belly pirana's before with some cory's etc + were fine as they were to small to bother with

Only problem i think i may have is that i also have a 10" polypterus dalhezi + a very large tin foil barb in there which i think may both eat the tetras

What do you guys think
Cheers
James

In that kind of setup, small fish wouldn't even have time to acclimatise,
The tinfoil for one would most likely mistake them for food, and there is no need to mention the larger cats and bichir

how big is this tank with all these big fish?
deffo no to small fish thats like a little snap to a redtail catfish,

its 350 gallon but im looking at doing an indoor pond in the near future, they are all currently happy + active but have got a feeling the pond will be needed sooner rather than later
