Barbs with what tank mates?

[fish_lovers]

I was wondering what tankmates go with cherry barbs? I am looking for a few different types of fish to put in. Our tank is 30 gallons and so far we have 3 cherry babrbs.
Thnks for any advice!

Cherry barbs are very peaceful fish and any other fish you mix with them should also be peaceful. There are really many small and peaceful tetras, for example. Harlequin rasboras are peaceful as well. So are certain catfish. There are really many choices. Maybe you could tell us which fish you like and are thinking about, and then we'll decide if they're compatible with cherry barbs

Yes, you should get 3 more cherry barbs. They are schooling fish.
