Tinfoil barbs grow to FOURTEEN INCHES. He's looking for a 4" fish, not 14" fish :)

You put tinfoil barbs in a 20g tank? You are nuts. I really hope you intend on buying a MUCH bigger tank, Fishisme.

Here, I pulled this directly from the site whose image you were linking to:

They grow to 40cm. That's 15.75 inches. It's right on that page.

Tinfoil barbs get to be like 14 inches long.

Congos only get to be 3 inches, thats smaller than the rainbows :O

Theres no rush,the 75 and 55 aren't even set up yet,IRS taking sweet time with the direct deposit.

That'st he second person that said "get tinfoil barbs". Do people not even check the fish they recommend? Sheesh.

I may have reading comprehension problems at times, but I do my research :)

You say not to get a breeding pair because of aggression. How many males or females, which ever would be better, could I get of the cichlids type? Could I mix and match one of each (ex- Angelfish,Severum,Festivum )?

What about Gouramies?

Okay I read another post that says you can have gouramis. I didn't want to hijack the thread, but which would be the least aggressive and how many could I keep in the 75?

Also I still would like to know if i can mix and match those 3 cichlids and not worry about aggression.

Keep in mind they will be with 2 Senegal birchirs and 2 clown loaches. Don't want to overstock. But do want mid/upper level fish.
