I am just starting out with a nice bow front 50 gallon. I filled it up and dropped two plecco in. After a few day, I went and picked up a few fish for my tank.
I got one small glass cat,
one small puffer,
and two tiger barbs.
On top of these guys, ive also got the two plecco, a small frog, and a fiddler crab.
I have recently heard that when you have less than 5 tiger barbs, they tend to terrorize other community fish in the tank.
So far, my puffy is swimming all over happily, the glass cat sticks to the top, the tiger barbs are teamed together and zip all over. Every once in a while, the fiddler comes out to do his kung fu. The frog was pointless to buy, and the plecco like to stay hidded in their castle.
Whats your opinion about the set up, will it work out ok? What do you recommend I feed them? How many times a day?
I want to keep them healthy and active.
Also, I want to get some small to medium size clown loaches, do you think I should get rid of the tiger barbs?
