So I just got a 15 gallon tank (rescued tank) with two (what appears to be) Chinese algae eaters and a red tailed shark in it. much too small a tank for all of them to stay in. 
Wondering what the consensus is on putting the red tailed shark and one of the algae eaters in my 120g planted community tank? 
this is what's in there
1 skunk loach
14 neons
2 rummynose
2 harlequin rasboras
3 various cories 
1 pictus catfish
3 giant danios ( moveable )

I'd recommend alot more than two Rummynose Tetras, they do best in very large schools imo and in my experience.. For example I have a school of 55 Rummynose Tetras in an 80 gallon tank with six Angelfish, a managerie of assorted Coryadors and Plecos.. The larger the school the more awesome the viewing.. Just my opinion tho..

I have seen various videos on the YouTubes on how people feed their Cardinal (small) tetras. I have been using NLS 0.5mm pellets, and I think they have been eating it, but I have not really observed it.

Does anyone have a great food / feeding system they love?

Thanks Friends

I feed live Microworms, Grindal worms and BBS, as well as Golden Pearls and Flake foods.  They are voracious feeders and are super active, that way you know they are eating.. I have Black Neon Tetras and Black Emperor TETRAS, as well as any dozen or so Albino Coryadors and five Ottocats and a single Silvertip Pleco into my 45 gallon tank  btw
