Well it looks like I've managed to snag another fish tank for free :D

I'm not 100% on the size as I don't have it yet, but they think it's a 33 gallon. I want to get some mildy aggresive fish this time, as I already have a community tank.

So far I'm thinking 4 Tiger barbs and 4 Green Barbs, but I'm not sure what else to add that won't get destroyed by the barbs.

All the fish I like get really big :( Everytime I see a fish I like I do some research and find out that they get to be 12+ inches. (Frontosa, Clown loach, Iridescent Shark, Pictus Cat) I'm starting to get pretty frustrated.

So I'm open to suggestions, what can survive in a tank of barbs?
 
ive got a rainbow shark, cory cats, and bn plecos all doing fine in my 29 with tiger barbs...in my experience they are way less agressive is they are kept in larger groups...they keep to themselves...
