Luis Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 Hi! I have a 50gallon tank with 9 adult tiger barbs, 4 small gold barbs, 6 small checkered barbs, 2 male kribs that keep to themselves, 1 small red tail shark and 1 large yoyo loach that I took from a friend a while back that chills with the larger krib. ive been wanting to add a new single fish into this tank. does anyone have some suggestions to what I could add that is semi-aggressive and could stand its own ground as well as have some personality? thanks! (It’s week planted and I’m filtering the tank 5times it’s capacity.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrozenFins Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 A semi-aggressive fish that doesn't have long fins would be your best bet. My first thought was a gourami, I had a pearl gourami who was super sweet (to me at least, not to the other fish) and would greet me at the tank and follow my finger all of the place. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luis Posted January 9, 2021 Author Share Posted January 9, 2021 I’ve been thinking of gourami, just don’t want him squaring up with my larger krib. From your experience did the gourami hold his own well without starting or ‘ending’ fights? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luis Posted January 9, 2021 Author Share Posted January 9, 2021 And I’m scared the barbs will nip it’s long ‘barbs’(idk what they’re called) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
