Nope... Lol. Not a big enough tank. There are the dwarf varieties like rams, apistos, and keyholes, along with shell dwellers and convicts... Which are more aggressive. Maybe one convict and some tiger barbs instead?

Umm... I would seriously think about moving that betta. You have 2 EXTREMELY nippy fish with a slow moving, long finned fish... It's just not a good combo. could you set up another tank for her?  maybe a ten gallon with some more peaceful tank mates?

Your Tiger Barbs should be in a group of at least 8 imo. They are schooling fish and do better with their own kind, in that they get less nippy cos they're too busy in-fighting.

Sand is fine, I have sand and tigers in my tank. I do recall an earlier thread from you about the cycling of your tank,in that it had only been cycled for about 6 hours. Did you get the kit advised and do the water changes? If not and your levels are shot please please please do not add any more fish.

Nothing until your tank is cycled.

Ive kept beta with tigers and crayfish with success, mutual respect for agression. Note the beta must be female to decrease length of fin. I think the rayfish worked with her because he was never on the same level of the tank as a labyrinth fish.
