I have a tank <3
it has a mini gourami, two tiger barbs, three loaches, a female and male crab, a plecostomus, and something that I don't know the species of. I also have two Cichlids.

I love all my fish so much that I gave them names <3
I had a really beautiful gourami for years, once and she recently died, I think from old age.
and I feel really bad..
I sound like a weirdo talking so dearly about my fish, but its true so..


I also have a betta in a bowl, I might get her a tank sometime soon, I tried to put her in my tank, but she got picked on so I took her back out of the tank.


Ooh what kind of crab?

A mini crab :3 i've got a female and male so they could be mates maybe sometime
.


"mini crabs" are just a trade name for fiddler species. They aren't freshwater animals, and they need a decent sized land area. They just live a while in a normal freshwater tank before they can't handle it anymore and die. (also they aren't breedable in captivity without extremely specific tanks and equipment)

Barbs and loaches do fine together, no matter the breed. (I have them in my tank now) I think tetras will do, as long as they're not the small kind. But, I'm really not shureabout the redtail shark, I've never had one before and don't know how they behave. I don't think that having guppies in the same tank with a barb would be a good idea. I recommend that you get a plachostamus.(I know I misspelled)
(Please correct me if I am wrong on anything)

The redtail will harass the guppies/kuhlis to death if it feels like it.

thank you. we were going to get a siren but it was sold already. I have had experience with them but cant find one...they are native to where I live so the first one I owned was wild caught but I have not seen one since. they are easier to keep than most fish because of their large size. I am going to see if I can find one before I get a fish I think. I will keep you guys posted okay. :D
