I recently added 6 tiger barbs to my tank mainly because I think their beautiful fish!! And my lfs had gotten far to many in and are selling them for 1.25$ each!!
But sadly they are murderous creatures :( killing my favorite female dalmation Molly and my red fire dwarf :(
They have to go "/ tomorrow (thursday) but due to their return policy my lfs won't return them now, and will not just let me give them back as they have far to many "/ I can't up their should to reduce aggression that would up my bio load to much, I've tried Craigslist , I don't know any one with a large enough aquarium either.
Killing them just seems horrible to me. Even though(PETA would kill me for saying this ) they are just fish but their beautiful and interesting creatures also.
What do I do?
 
Get 6 more. Problem solved. Do extra water changes until your filter media catches up.
 
You can't imagine how much I'd like to take them off your hands, plus several more at that price!!
 
No kidding! I love them so much their just so Aggressive, are you positive doubling the shoal would fix the aggression ?
 
It certainly worked with mine. I started out with 6 I think, then got 8 more and they completely settled down. I had a tank problem recently and they're down to 10 and getting a little nippy. I drove for 4 hours yesterday looking for more, but nobody had any! I want 6-8 more.
