Switching Fish Betwen Tanks

[loafybones]

Hiya,

I have two tanks as follows:

Juwel Vision 180 containing

1x Denasoni Barb
1x Red Tailed Black Shark
1x Flying Fox
2x Clown Loach (really small at the mo)
4x Tiger Barbs
4x Rosy Barbs
4x Serpae Tetras

Juwel Rekord 60 containing

4x Zebra Danios
4x Albino Zebra Danios
4x Pearl Danios
1x Male Swordtail
3x Glass Bloodfins
Neon Tetras (won't keep still so don't know how many- about 8 I think)

I know the little tank is overstocked so I was thinking of moving the Zebras or maybe the Pearl Danios to the big tank but I'm not sure if the Barbs would rip them to bits!

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Ta,

The danios are probably fast enough that the tigers won't bother them. They mainly pick on slower fish. The ones that may be in danger in the larger tank though are the serpae tetras and even the small clown loaches.

I thought the Serpaes might get bitten so I kept an eye on them and they're fine- they even have a go back at the barbs if they get bothered.

The Clown Loaches are OK too, don't worry, they're not that small compared to the other fish, about 2" is the smallest and the other is about 3" so they're only small by Clown Loach standards!

Ta for the advice.
