Cardinal Tetra and Aquarium Overflow

[thomas79]

Hi guys,

I'm currently planning to redo my 190 gal aquarium and was thinking of a low light planted aquarium (with java fern and anubias) and was wondering if you think it's safe to keep a school of cardinal tetra in a tank with an overflow. My guess is that cardinal tetra are med level swimmer so I think it might be safe.

Let me know what you think, thanks.

I would put a screen over the overflow, but it should be fine. That will be an awesome tank. You have a lot of other options if you want other plants I like crypts and dwarf lilies.
