will be stocking my 100g soon i already have a red tailde black shark pictus catfish and 2 kribs from old tank. to this i want to add either 1 or 2 blue acara . am toying with the idea toying with maybe 6 denison barbs, would these mix ok with the acara?

I cant see any problems with the barbs, they reach a good size 15cm or so, which means the acara couldnt fit them in his mouth, although you may want to have the barbs grow a bit before putting the acara in, depending on the size acara you get obviously.

I think they would look stunning in a large shoal, I know I want some when I get my 100+g next year
