Hello Everybody,
So I just re-did my 20 gall from scratch. I opted to do a semi-aggressive community tank this time, since I haven't done a community tank in awhile.
It's currently stocked with:
- 1 dwarf gourami
- 2 ruby barbs
- 3 tiger barbs (1 died from harassment)
My problem is this.
One of the tiger barbs are harassing the other two real bad and the one ruby barb is harassing the other real bad. So everyone, minus these two bad boys are clumped in a corner of the tank really stressed. I guess I was asking for it with the number of these fish that I bought. Lol. However, this tank is pretty boring so I was thinking of doing the following:
a) adding 2 more tiger barbs and 2 more rubies
b) adding a small school of serpaes
c) ditching the dwarf gourami and getting a krib or two
d) a combination of the above
However a) seems to be something that I will have to do inevitably.
I'm pretty sure I know what I'm gonna be hearing, but just to hear some other voice other than mine what do you all think?
Thanks a lot in advance.
