    I have a 20gallon tank and 5 tiger barbs and would like to get more fish. I tried putting my bala shark in with them and they picked at him and wouldn't leave him alone. Please help

    Tiger barbs can be pretty aggressive and will chase anything that will swim away. having a heavily planted tank with lots of hiding places seems to help that issue in my 55 gal tank.
