I Thought Gold Barbs Or Any Barb Are The Friendliest Fish?

I've had a pair of both Cherries and Goldies with some longfin Zebra Danios and I had no problems, I'd recommend both barbs to you! :p
 
For shoaling fish I have zebra danios and they are amazing to watch, also red eye tetra (not the balloon variety) are very pretty and mine survived a number of disasters at the hands of my not-so-expert-as-he-thinks boyfriend, so they seem very hardy!
 
My tigers leave my red tail shark alone even if hes swimming next to them they keep there fighting to themselves, they do like a good fight
 
I think I must have picked the most aggressive ones in the shop!
From the moment I put them in they argued with each other, then it seemed they had their pecking order sorted so they just argued with every other fish in the tank - the only one they left alone was the 6" bristlenose!

In the end I got sick of it so returned them to the LFS who kindly took them back and replaced all the fish they killed :), as they had previously said me they should be fine if I got a group!
 
I have 3 Golden Barbs, 2 Dennison Barbs, 2 Cherry Barbs in my comunity tank and have no problems with them, in fact when I get an empty tank I am thinking of having a go at breeding the Golden's.
 
If you really want rid of them, they would make nice food for my lot! lol.

*edit* for the PC peeps.. Just so they know, im joking...
