Can I Put Cherry Barbs In My Tank?

My current stocking is in my sig.

They're compatible but you should try to avoid overstocking. One inch of adult fish per gallon.

depending on filtration u may get away with some..but barbs are apparently "fin nippers" and may not get on with ur angel

Cherry barbs are one of the exceptions. I've kept them before and found them to be very placid and non fin nippers. That being said, fish are individuals, and you could end up with an aggressive group.

IME you should be fine, but keep a close watch.
