I would like to have this in my aquarium?
Trichogaster Leeri
Mikrogeophagus Ramirezi
Pseudomugil Furcatus
Barbus Tetrazona

Are this fish compatible?
 
Tiger barbs are notorious for fin nipping so I would not put them with GBR or pearl gourami, you would need to do some research on compatibility as you have picked fish from all over the world, all live in different water parameters
 
I think yes minus the barbs. Maybe you like harlequin rasboras? Or cherry barbs?

Noooo! I wanted the barbs most than any of listed fishes.:(
 
Well, you could ditch the other fish and select stock based around the barbs

I alredy have the other fishes from list and wanted barbs as I never had them.
I even gaved beautiful Beta to a friend so I could purchase barbs.:banghead:
 
5 banded barbs are similar but less nippy. IDK if they work, but they'd be a lot better. You should do some research on them. Although they are more expensive.

I saw a large tank with all barbs, I must admit it did look very impressive, so you could go that way Orca........ just a thought
 
Il get my barbs tomorrow. How many should i get so they fight among each other and live other fishes alone hopefully.
 
It will take a lot of them to not nip the others. I'd just forget them or get another tank.
