I have a 20 gallon tank.
In it is a Rainbow shark
A female Golden Panchax (the male found a little hole and jumped out of the tank after 3 days)
2 cherry barbs
3 zebra danios
from what I have read these should be ok with each other but the male cherry barb is chasing ererything and the rainbow shark is chasing the cherry barb and sometimes the other fish (it sneaks up and seems to attack).
There are also 12 plants in the tank therefore hiding places and I am currently soaking and boiling and soaking and boiling etc have been for about a week a piece of wood for a real hiding place for the shark. At the moment it is hiding in an amazon sword plant.
Will the bickering let up?
Have I chosen ok fish?
Are the numbers ok and can I add more?
If so how many and what do you suggest?
Thanks
