my friend who has some zebra danios wants to add some cardinals...will they be ok together in his tank? those danios seem kinda aggressive come feeding time...i think they would be ok together...but i just want to see if anyone else has that combo???

They will be fine. Danios are peaceful enough and cardinals are very peaceful.

As long as the light levels aren't too intense, the pH is low, and their are plently of plants and open swimming space, then yes.

I keep a successful community of fish in a 4 foot tank including the following families: Cichlids, tetras, loaches, gouramis, barbs, rainbows, livebearers, killiefish, catfish, puffers.
