If you are keeping tiger barbs only,,,,i'd stuff about 30 in there,,,throw the 1 inch per gallon out the window,,,,,maintain healthy levels of nitrates via water changes,,,,tiger tank would look awesome !!

i'm only keeping tiger barbs in this tank. i think it would be cool to have a large school swimming around in the tank.
