Thanks guys! From what I know, pretty much all bottom dwellers (unless they themselves are aggressive) go fine and won't be bothered by even Tiger Barbs which are semi-aggressive. I'm not sure about other mid level fish, I have tigers and rosys together fine, no nipping at all, but I think...

Hi guys! I added the final stock to my first aquarium today and thought I'd make a post here about the tank, and what's in it! I have a 165L/44G 3 foot tank with a light color sand that I washed thoroughly. The tank also has a 100w aqua one heater (which might seem a little low, but I live in...

Hi guys, just wanted to get some opinions on stocking my 40 gal (3 foot) TB tank. Currently I have 5 tiger, 3 albino and 2 green, they all school together most of the time and I've only had minor pecking happen about three times in the couple of months I've had them all so it seems like they're...

Thanks for the reply, that's about what I figured, just wanted to get some opinions, don't wanna under feed just as much as I don't wanna over feed, of course! Sounds good

Just wanted to get some opinions on what I should really be feeding my Tiger Barbs. To be specific, I want to know how much and how often. I'm feeding TetraMin tropical flakes, and have 10 tiger barbs. The container says to feed as much as they eat in "several minutes" 2-3 times a day, this...

So I'm planning on getting a bigger tank for my Tiger Barbs and am wondering what would be a good maximum number of barbs for the tank. The dimensions are 36Lx20Hx14W (inches) the capacity is about 42 gallons but with the displacement of stuff like substrate and driftwood it will have about 36...

I like having fish at the bottom of the tank, so I did some reading and it looks like a good species would be the dwarf pleco (Otocinclus). If so, I'm thinking 6 tiger barbs and 3 or 4 of the otos would be good for this tank, thoughts? Thanks.

My last reply is waiting moderation for some reason, may be that i did a multiquote. The algae eaters are currently about 2.5 inches, two dudes at two different pet stores told me in this size tank they wouldn't get too big, I now have a feeling that was a douchey sales move. :facepalm:

Sounds like an awesome tank! I put some Java Moss in there yesterday, I'm hoping it does well as having a live plant in there will be good. Bookmarked! That's an awesome tool, thanks! Another thing, would keeping more than one type of barb in this tank be a good idea? With the first type...

yeah, 21 gallons is 80 liters, which is about what is in the tank. I grabbed an internal 350lph filter when I got the tank but I'm liking the idea of a small canister (800lph) because of the extra flow and more media capacity. I'm happy with the two catfish, I just really love the barbs so...

Hi all! I have just bought a tank, 60cmL x 50cmH x 30cmW, has about 80 liters of water in it. I have 5 Tiger Barbs and two sucking catfish (Gyrinocheilus Aymonieri), all 5 barbs and both the catfish seem very happy in there. My question is, how many tiger barbs can I have in this size tank? To...
