Hi everyone!

I currently house 6 barbs, with 2 of each: Rosy, Tiger, and Green barbs.

I'm curious as to what I may be able to house with them. I'd like maybe something that stays fairly small, and short fins (obviously). I wouldn't want to get any more than 2. 1 would be ideal, though.

I've read neon tetras do okay with barbs, sometimes and sometimes not. But I believe they school, don't they? It probably wouldn't be very kind to get only 2 of them.

Is there some sort of corycat i might be able to get?

I should mention I hope to one day get some shrimp- preferably some blue crystal shrimp. The color of them is just so pretty and would look great against the sand. Or maybe yellow..

Anyways- Ideas?
 
What size is the tank? The Barbs do better in larger school not just 2 (6+ of each is better). No, Neons will not do well with Batrbs.
