Buying more fish

[rob]

Hi,

I have had my 70L tank for about 6 months and only have five Tiger Barbs and two Zebra Danios. The tank is lightly planted and I'm running a Aquaclear Mini filter on it.

I was thinking about getting 1/2 Dwarf Otocinclus and/or something else.. so I'm writing on here to get some suggestions. I understand that Dwarf Otocinclus eat algae and other green foods such as lettuce and peas, but how do you feed it?

TIA for any advice,

Rob

Well, you're pretty much well stocked now.... I would get maybe one more tiger barb and 3-4 more danios to finish out their schools and then with the otos, that's about all you can fit in that tank.....

Feeding is simple. Algae disc and shrimp pellets.

You should add more danios because they are schooling fish.

If there isn't too much aggression from the barbs, you might want to add bottom feeders such as corydoras and not get more barbs.
