Barb Tankmates...

I have a 20 Gallon tank with 4 albino tiger barbs. I was wondering, what other fish can i add with the TB's and not get their fins nipped. Thank you in advance

Any fish that isn't too slow moving or skittish, and doesn't have long fins. Platys, swordtails, most tetras, corys, danios. Avoid angelfish, gouramis, guppies, and the like.

You'll have better luck with any fish if you add some more tiger barbs, at least two more for a group or 6. The more of them there are, the more they nip each other and the less they nip everybody else. You could add a couple regular or green tiger barbs, so you'd be getting some variety and boosting your tiger barb school

I've got 4 albino's and 4 regular tiger barbs. initially I had just 4 tigers but they settled after increasing the school size with the 4 albino's. I've also got Golden Barbs (3) and 4 Red Eyed Tetra's in the tank and they cohabit ok. I'm no fan of the red eyes though as they are just plain nasty fin nipping bullies.

I've also got a pleco, 3 cory's and 2 ropefish in the tank and they are fine together.

As the posted above says nothing too small, slow or with long fins should be fine
