Fish Guy  Mega Fish Posts: 1091 Kudos: 1254 Votes: 2 Registered: 28-Jan-2004   | I have a 75 gallon tank with a trio of firemouths,trio of kribs,6-7 cories, and a common pleco ( soon hoping to get a cooler pleco ). I was wondering what else i could put in there? I thinking of a large school of barbs of some sort or along those lines. |

| Fish Guy Mega Fish Posts: 1091 Kudos: 1254 Votes: 2 Registered: 28-Jan-2004 | Thanks. I myself think that Bala sharks would get to large for 75 and the checkered barbs are pretty small they might get eaten. |

| billyspans Banned Posts: 59 Kudos: 48 Votes: 0 Registered: 23-Jun-2005 | You could try a school of green barbs. They are the hardiest of the barbs and would complement the tank nicely. Have you also thought about loaches? |

| Fish Guy Mega Fish Posts: 1091 Kudos: 1254 Votes: 2 Registered: 28-Jan-2004 | Well for the bottom i just plan to have a large shoal of cories. I might go with a school of around 10-14 Rosy barbs and a school of 8-10 tiger barbs. |
