How Many Neon Tetra In A 55gal Tank?

[mrvillicus]

Im deciding what my stock is going to be for a fluval roma 240....suggested

15 columbian tetra
30 Neon tetra
2 Bolivian rams
2 Angelfish
6 corydoras

The only question I have is...how many neons would be perfect?

 

[phantomlink]

dont angelfish eat neons?

 

[mrvillicus]

well, ive looked into it, as long as they are introduced at the same time and the angels are smaller and young, they should be ok but to be honest I might sack the angels off, just thought theyd be cool as a centrepiece

15 columbian tetra
30 Neon tetra witch will be 80% full at 1ich fish if that helps.
