Tiger Barbs Anyone?

[omega59]

How many tiger barb's can be placed in a 10gal aquarium?? I have this tank that is housing guppy fry and once they are big i want to remove them and place some tiger barb's. My fry are 1 month old on the 15th

As a rule, Tigers have to be kept in shoals of 6 plus..... They'll be fine in a 10gal, (as long as there is nothing else)...

Okay, now what if they breed? i read they can breed easily.

Yeah Lol agree with above, never keep tiger barbs in a community tank.

No worries.... The fry will not be there unless you specifically set them up for breeding.... I agree with the above statement.
