Hello all, I have just recently taken a male convict and multiple fry to the pet shop as I don't want more fry. I have replaced them with four male tiger barbs and one female. I have the female convict and about a dozen fry - that I couldn't catch - as well as a pleco in the tank with them. The fry are about 1/2 inch and I am wondering if the barbs could eat them. Also, the female barb continues to chase the four males - she isn't the biggest of the barbs. Will this be detemental to the males?
 
I have a barb too i guess they always like to chase their own kind and if not they will pick in others. Like mine ia always chasing a white skirt tetra
