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.

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?

  • A lot! - I avoid fish that require frequent or specialized feeding

    Votes: 9 25.0%
  • Quite a bit, but an automatic feeder can change my answer

    Votes: 6 16.7%
  • It depends on whether my nutrient export can handle it

    Votes: 5 13.9%
  • It depends on how badly I want the fish

    Votes: 10 27.8%
  • Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

    Votes: 9 25.0%
  • Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

    Votes: 6 16.7%
  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!

    Votes: 2 5.6%
  • I haven’t really considered this before
