I've spent the day searching every forum post and article I could find about putting tiger barbs with neon tetras. It seems split, some say the barbs ignore the neons and some say it's a horrible idea. Does anyone else have any personal experience with this?
The barbs I'm looking to get will be smaller than the neons (to start)...if this may make a difference in how they grow to live with the neons? I was planning on 7-9 of each in my 29g tank. Possibly better to have 1-2 more neons than barbs?
I'm also open to suggestions to replace the barbs, I like fish that are more on the active side. Unfortunately with the barbs, the active side is aggression.
Thanks for any help!
