Oscar Vs Torpedo Barb

[george4]

would a small showl of torpedo barb be ok with two 6 inch oscars or would this be suicide??? bearing in mind i will probably re home 1 of the oscars at a later date. the tank is 400 litres. thanks

You asked this in NW Cichlids a few days if I remember correctly? The answer was then and still is now, No, unfortunately the Oscars will see them as food before they are full grown, even just one would eat them.

yes i did ask the other day about possible tank mates i was only asking about torpedos since guy at LFS yesterday told me that a group of fast barbs should be ok with them but i was not convinced ! thanks
