Both are over 2" when mature, and would make a beautiful display in a larger tank. Bloodfins, while slimmer bodied, would be a nice, hardy, strongly schooling fish for the upper water layers. I'm sure whatever you end up with will look great!

Danielle Hobbyist Posts: 145 Votes: 0 Registered: 22-Apr-2004	You could put in a smaller school of congo tetras which are absolutely beautiful! They are larger than your average tetras (growing to just over 3 inches) so you couldn't put in as many as the smaller kind, but what they lack in numbers they will make up in sheer beauty!!

Tetra Fan Mega Fish Posts: 1203 Kudos: 1081 Votes: 63 Registered: 11-Apr-2004	hey. tetras are great fish and u will be glad u chose them. im thinking that since u have a really big tank then maybe a school of 15-20 each? that would look really nice. and since they are the larger forms of tetra ( pretty sure about black neons being the larger kind but i know the bleeding hearts are) any way since they are larger and i think you have some room then maybe you could squeeze in an angel actually now that i look you could squeeze in maybe 2 to make a pair. good luck with ur new set-up
