I have a 29 gallon freshwater aquarium with 6 tiger Barbs,
1 Rainbow & 1 common pleco what fish can I add? My filter is Sunsun HW402B at 266gph W UV and a Tetra EX 20 with just bamboo (not tall enough to go in tank) and lots of java fern/moss what can I add?
(PS I'm going to get a few more Tiger Barbs)
Can I keep Angelfish?
Blue ram cichlids?
Some kind of tetra?
Danios?
All advice is appreciated
In advance Thanks

I would say at this point you're already reaching Max Bioload, especially if you're getting more Tiger Barbs. What kind of Rainbow do you have? Rainbows typically like to be in groups of 6+, and a lot of the bigger species will out grow a 29. Same with the common pleco, that's a fish I really think shouldn't be in the hobby, especially with how common they are to find, they have a massive Bioload and get big, so I would try and give it to someone who has a huge tank / even a tropical pond.
