I have a 20 gallon aquarium with 1 Oscar, 1 Gourami, 2 Tinfoil barbs, 1 Plecostomus, and some rosy red feeders. I wanted to add something else to my tank besides the fish species I have already got. Please let me know if there is any other fish species I could add in with them.

Sorry to say but your tank is going to be severely overstocked. Oscars and tinfoil barbs most definitely need more room, and depending on the species of gourami and pleco you have, they may need more room too. Do not add anything right now, and seriously consider either upgrading or finding new homes/returning most of your current stock.

How long has this tank been set up? Was it cycled?

Don't add anymore fish, work on upgrading to a bigger tank ASAP or finding new homes for your fish, the oscar, tinfoil barbs, and pleco are going to get a lot bigger and need a lot more space. You're already going to be VERY overstocked VERY soon.

i hope this is a joke.:mad2::mad2::mad2:
No, it's not. I recognize this same post from another forum I'm on, and he erased everything in it. Again, you need to return most of your fish! Except the rosy red feeders....
