I have a 20 gallon high fish tank. It's currently the biggest fish tank I have.
I stocked it with:
6 black skirts (1 inch each give or take)
6 tigers (inch and a half)
3 Bolivian rams (inch and a half)
The tank is pretty well planted, plenty of hiding places. The rams were actually acclimated just today. I did a lot of research and I was fairly confident that the barbs and rams would be alright together if the rams were given adequate hiding spots, which they are. The plants provide a lot of cover and I also have a cave.
I have two questions.
Is the tank overpopulated? Which fish should I move where? I have a ten and another 20 gallon currently empty.
Also, is my information right about the bolivian rams being kept with the tigers? I haven't seen any fin nipping yet, but the tigers do seem very interested in the rams, following them around and such.
