Oh no...... I don't think I can return the tiger barbs because it's definitely been past 30 days- It's also definitely not in me to euthanize the fish and I doubt my parents would let me anyway. Is there really nothing else I can do? I'm really regretting getting the tiger barbs now

How much space do tiger barbs require? I was under the impression that even 20 gallons would be an ample amount of space for 6 tiger barbs, and thought I had plenty of extra space for other fish.... :oops:

Thank you for being direct first of all, I know this is a mess of a tank and I'm just trying to salvage it at this point. Right now, the molly is safe and even pushes the tiger barbs around a bit if they get too close because they're really small when compared to the molly. Unfortunately I do...

Thanks, the reason I was mainly concerned was because of the prior molly death and how the gourami seemed to be fine for a month. It felt like too much of a coincidence for the molly to die and the gourami to suddenly get "nipped" within the time frame of a week. Really hoping it isn't a...

I used to do water changes once a week last month, but I've recently switched to once ever two weeks where I change about 30%-40% of the water because the tank is pretty understocked. As for the matter of nitrates, nitrites, and ammonia, I've begged my parents to get a testing kit, but they say...

So... This has been a really horrible year with my fish tank stocking. My 30 gallon tank has 6 tiger barbs, 1 Dalmatian molly, 4 albino corydora catfish, and a dwarf gourami. There's a little background to how I ended up with this mix of fish. At first, I wanted a species-only tank with tiger...
