Once the flagfish gets settled in, i think that'd be just fine They're really hardy and pretty neat lookin.

like in many other post about the same topic, and like babel said, they should be in bigger school, but that would exceed ur 10 gallon,

and i have some other questions, is this another 10g, other than the gouramies/barbs/plecos.

As I said in the other thread you started on this same subject you really shouldnt stock both together in such a small tank.

You're better off with simply the flag fish. If you already have the black skirts either return them for credit to the LFS or purchace a larger tank so they can be in a proper sized school .
