So would 6 tiger barbs and 5 spotted corys work? Also could I get a center peice fish with this stocking?

Remember that Tiger Barbs can be nippy- I like the idea of like six rummy nose tetras or something?
For center peice fish, I always loved German Blue Rams, why not get a paire?

From my experience Tiger barbs and rams don't get a long and I had pretty placid Barbs, had to buy a new tank for them. Its also a pain as Rams tend to be bottom feeders and Tiger barbs are very fast eating mid-water to surface level fish so they will steal almost all the food.

Id recommend something like Cardinal Tetras or Harlequin Rasboras with rams

Alrighty, I think I got my eyes set on a tiger barb only tank.

They are defiantly cool fish very active and very fast at feeding time. You could also add a bristlenose pelco or something as they look neat and will keep your tank glass clean!

Yeah I always liked the look of tiger barbs and hope to be getting a few more in the future, I hope I dont have to move my corys
