What do x ray tetras look like. Never seen any.

How long have you had angel fish and neons together Ive heard angels eat neons.

Im going for some rummy nose tetras next.

I have x ray tetra's nice fish, yes angel eat neon tetra's as they eat them in the wild, some corys for the bottom would be nice say six.

i spoke to 2 different lfs and both said as long as the angels were small when i got them, that they should be fine with my neon's, as of yet the angels are not bothered bout there other tank mates, in fact they go and hide when the neons go towards them. had the angels in with them for a week now, but if they get to be a problem i have a spare tank which they can go in.

A group of corys or khuli loaches would be good for some interest at the bottom.

Works for some people if the angels are young when introduced.

Having said that it also works for some people who then wake up one morning to find no Neons and fat Angels.

Keep a close eye on things.

Go for some head and tail tetras (they mix with a lot!) - or some bleeding heart tetras (this are good except they might get eaten)!

I'd go for a bottom dweller next.

A school of corys, a school of loaches, or a small (bristlenose, clown) plec would be just fine.
