Tiger barbs

My first thought. Love green tiger barbs but how many will be okay with an angel fish. My angels can hold their own but I don't want aggression. I've heard increasing numbers reduces aggression

Just a thought, tiger barbs are some of the worst fin nippers so it's not recommended for long finned fish. One way to reduce it is larger schools. Just a thought

I agree with nu-nu . Just get a large school so there should be no nipping . Just incase you could move your betta to the 20 gallon with the honey gourami

Serpae tetras.

Get a large school of tiger barbs (9+) and they should keep the nips to themselves.

Yayyyyy!!! Do you know if green tiger barbs are more or less aggressive? I know it's just a color morph but I thought maybe...

I don't believe there is any difference of aggression in regular, albino, or green tiger barbs.
