Opaline Gourami

[Dutsey]

Is an Opaline Gourami suitable for my tank? I am after a centre piece fish to go with my 10 Tiger Barbs, 4 Black Ruby Barbs , 1 Red Tail Black shark.

Tank Size is 125l

i would say all those fish are too aggressive to be housed with a gourami,

I agree I recently had a bad exp with tigers my vt angel fish lost 15% of his fins a lot for his size I got rid of them I also didn't know how nippy they are my brothers Betta lost 90% of his fins and nearly died because of it and due to opalines long ventral and anal fins they would have a snak on them

wow, liquid. looks like you have seen yourself what a tiger barb can do to a long finned fish

+1 On above.
I would also be looking to rehome the shark aswell.

we dont yet know how large the tank is so we cant make assumptions that the tank is unsuitable for the chosen stocking

Its says 125l... Lol

oops. sorry, i only read the top part of the post, and since the tank is only 125 liters I would say that that tank is unsuitable for a shark as they are territorial, and deserve a 4 foot tank, so are unsuitable for the OP's tank
