Opinions on Albino tiger barbs and regular Tiger barbs schooling together. Thanks! ?

same fish, they don't know the difference

Oh really??? Thanks!

They may or may not swim together. Same species, but different colors or patterns may or may not hang out together. I don't think anybody can guarantee that they will.

I have 5 regular tiger barbs. I only keep them with some Otocinclus. They are probably my most "lively" and active fish besides my dojo loach. Very fun to watch. I have them in a 10g but they are supposed to be in a 30g (rehoming soon). Being so active they can be nippy with long fins so beware.

I've read that you should have a school of each if you have regular, green, or albino tiger barbs.

But more often than not people on here report that they school together regardless of the different types. I want to upgrade to a 75 gallon and turn my 55 into a species tank of just tiger barbs-like 30 of them.

I would love to see that. My 5 dart around their tank and very active swimmers, seeing 30 doing that in a nice big tank would be amazing!
