New driftwood...new fish?

[Grundy]

Well, I went to the LFS to get a couple more tiger barbs to add to my herd and left with a $35 piece of driftwod that I really didn't need - oh well, I think it looks good so it is worth the price. Below is a picture (the new piece is in the middle). Anyhoo, I am still looking for a centerpiece fish for my tank and I am still hesitant to add cichlids to the barbs (thanks for the advice everyone). I would ideally like a fish that gets 3-6 inches and has a little color. Any suggestions?

I don't remember if I suggested these to you but you could try a pair of Sajica cichlids pretty much peaceful and only get around 6" big.

You may look into gourami but it really depends...like on the tiger barbs behavior but other than that i would go with some kind of gourami or maybe a group of 3-5 silver dollars... its all up to you man.... btw great looking tank

Well... with all those barbs you need a fast aggressive shortfined Cichlid... Remember that barbs will probably try to nip the fins of fish with large fins. At the moment i have a Gold Severum with 8 rosy barbs and no problem at all...


BTW really good looking tank!

Thanks for the kind words about the tank. I appreciate the input on the other fish. I'll let you know what I decide. Thanks again!
