Barbs Compatibility

[markandjanice]

can anyone tell me what barbs will go well with? my missus is showing some interest now in my new tropical tank setup and shes seen these and loves them? would be great if they suited other fish i was thinking of but want to ask the experts here

will they got with neon, cardinals and rummynose tetras and maybe zebra danios?

im not getting anything with fancy ruffly tails like guppies...please advise

We got 6 Cherry Barbs with Neon/Black/GlowLight Tetras, Rasboras, Bettas, Cories & 1 Guppy. They couldn't be any more happier!

Cherry Barbs act more like tetras than barbs in my opinion. Slow, calm, and small. They'll be fine with any community fish.
