i have a 20 gal tank with mollies,guppies,swordtailsand pladies in it i went out and bought a 10gal.because i would like to have so tigers ,tetra,and some zerbras should i put them in the 20gal and what can i put in it.i also have a red tail shark,plus a betta that its in it's own tank.i have two 5 gal tanks not in use.can i get some feed back on what i can do
 
IMHO a 10 gallon is too small for Tiger Barbs. They are a shoaling fish and you need to keep at least 6 to keep their aggression down. That would complete the stocking for a 10. In addition, they are fast swimmers and like open water, they won't get that in a 10. The same is true to a lesser extent of Zebras.

In a small tank like that, you could keep say 7 Glowlights or another similaly sized tetra.
