Just wanted to say thanks for the tip I moved stuff around and put the alpha back after things settled down my female is as bright as he is and protecting the little one :D I did notice the little one has no anal fins?? How odd I mean they are not there at all but they never were hmm
 
Well I think it's cool looking and will make a good tank mate but I will get two so one doesn't get lonely...just frustrated I didn't know to do a sand bottom for my fish :( have you ever changed out gravel for sand?
 
No not that one I think it is a clown loach I looked more at the panda and it's spotted this one is striped like the tiger barb :) but I don't mind I think they are both pretty cool

Clown loaches get HUGE and need 125 gal tanks
 
Clown Loaches get massive and should be kept in a group, IMO your tank is not suitable, Tiger Bars also need to be in a larger group as the bullying will probably return.
The description of the loach sounds like a Banded Loach, which grows to around 8-9 inches and requires 50-55 gallons.
 
Yes I did my research I got an albino catfish instead he's 1/2 inch right now and will probably get neon tetras later but I plan on get more tiger barbs but not until I get a bigger tank but now my fish have ich so who knows what will happen :(
 
I would stay well clear of the LFS you have been using, sounds like they sold you Tigers with Ich and can't tell the difference between a Cory and Golden Bristlenose Pleco - I wouldn't buy a thing from them again.
