hi everyone.

... as some of you may remember I used to have a problem with ick in a young tank. (29 gallon tank with 4 T.B.)
everithing seems to be ok right now.

so... I have a stocking question...

is it possible to add a Convict cichlid with my barbs??
I don't mean right now just in a couple of weeks or a month
but I don't want to make mistakes.
I want to be sure if these guys can live together.

some people said is ok and anothers gave me a big "no"
"cichlids with cichlids" but I've seen it in some places.

Also. in the future when time be right I would like to add a
red tailed shark too.
and I guess it will be stocked.
right?


so.. what you guys think??
any comment will be very welcomed!!!
have a nice day.

I have a a red tail shark with six tiger barbs and they get on well together.not to sure about the cichlid's and the barbs personally i would not take the chance with putting them in together. but the RTS is the way to go.

best of luck

I dunno about cichlids but I have swordtails and danios in my tiger barb tank and they all get along good

tiger barbs and a single con will be fine....if you add the shark after, their might be issues with the con/shark as they both like the bottom
