I have 7 tiger barbs currently and they all seem to get along. The only problem i have is 1 of the tiger barbs picks on my angel fish and fin nips him. Should I remove the angelfish all together or just the 1 tiger barb causing the trouble?
As a short term measure while you figure things out and where to rehome things, a divider is fine. Longer term i dont think either the angelfish or your barbs would benefit from having their swimming space so restricted.i also have some long finned tetras that the tiger barb doesn’t seem to have any interest in. Would this become a problem in the future? I was also considering getting 1 more angelfish and putting a divider in the middle of the tank. Do you think this would be a good idea?
would you recommend covering some of the lights so it’s not as bright? or is the aggression just lower since the fish are winding down to sleep?
