Ruby Barbs

[Smells a bit fishy]

Ok, little background info, I had them in a 125 litre tank, with a mixture of fish. However they nipped my angelfish to shreds. I removed them and placed them into a fishless tank 50 litres.

Now the question I want to ask is that, Is a 50 litre tank too small for such an active fish, also would I be able to put any other fish in this tank if I were to keep them. (I really want to keep them, they are very cute) lol.

If the tank is too small I will have to take them back, regretably. But I would much rather take them back, than to see them unhappy.

Any thoughts would be much appreciated

Personally I think 50L is too small for any barbs. They are schooling fish, and most if not all are very active. I plan to move mine to the big tank too.

Ok. Yeh that's what I thought. But before taking them back I thought I would double check. Such a shame. I will try and see if I can get some other fish instead. I doubt it though
