You could have 12 to 24 in a 120 litre tank. I have found tiger barbs get quite nippy, and are not that great of a community fish.

ok so the geneal consensus, would be not to keep them with tiger barbs?

and that aroun 20 wopuld be a nice number?


Thanks Guys

I wouldn't have tiger barbs either at least not in a community tank.

20 harlequins would look pretty good though.

20 harlequins and get some bottom dwellers like cories or loaches.

no never, just lots of spawning, the fmales don't fight and the male keeps to himself most of the time. Infact when i move them to my big tank i will get a few more females.


people ask me that ALL the time. Like doesn't your fully grown angel eat the smaller fish (Cardinals etc) again no.....but if i put another angel in there he would kill that.
