Angels vs. Barbs

[BobbyFishKins]

So I'm setting up a 10gallon tank i have 5 tiger barbs i want to put in there from my 30 gallon tank, i was wondering should i move the barbs or just put an angel in the 10 gallon, i know angels get alot bigger than barbs, and both barbs and angels cannot live together, what should i do, i'm also buying a 55gallon should i just put the angels in the 55 and leave the barbs?

Tiger barbs need a minimum 20 long tank, they get to be 3 inches a piece. An angel needs 29 or 20 high because they grow VERY big long ways So they would have to be in the 30. Barbs and angels cannot live together. Barbs nip fins and your angel would be in tatters. I would not do either, because they will outgrow it. I would wait and put the angel in the 55, leave the barbs in the 30. Do a shrimp tank or a betta, or perhaps endler, or guppy tank. Lots of color!
