Hi Guys
I recently purchased an albino kribensis and have him in a 46 gallon with 10 tiger barbs. He's definitely an awesome fish and has been all over the tank since I got him. Both the barbs and him are quite young and small. I'd like to complete my tank with another fish, preferably a bottom dweller. Just looking for some advice/opinions on what I have available to me. I'm definitely open to another cichlid, as long as it can co exist with my krib and won't eat my barbs. From what I researched, there isn't many.
My original plan was to get 6 kuhli loaches and call it a day, however, I feel they may hide a lot and it kind of puts a lot of attention on my krib from the barbs. 10 of those guys can be a bit much. So, I thought about yoyo loaches but my concern is would they be OK with my krib in a 46 gallon? Whatever fish I choose will be my last addition to the tank. Any help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks
