PUNTIUS NIGROFASCIATUS - Black Ruby Barb...Tank mates?

Post by Jyynx » Thu Feb 04, 2010 11:48 am

My fish store is getting these guys in soon. I looked them up online and they look very nice. I'd like to add them to my 33 gallon with my current tiger barbs (I have a single male Kribensis in there too, I had nowhere else to put him) . Does anybody know if they'll all school together? And if not, do you think they'd be able to peacefully mingle?

Thanks!

They may or may not. The Tiger Barbs are more pushy, the Ruby Barbs are better in a more peaceful tank. I like them better.
38 tanks, 2 ponds over 4000 liters of water to keep clean and fresh.

Happy fish keeping!
