I have recently purchased a 55l Dennerle Scaper’s Tank and am looking for some ideas in terms of inhabitants.
I currently have one Neon Tetra from a previous tanks and 5 Amanos.
I was thinking of getting some Celestial Pearl Danios. However, on a trip to my local fish store I came across a planted tank with Cherry Barbs. I really like the look of them.
Does anyone know if they are suitable for a 55l tank?
Are they safe to keep with shrimp (Amano and Red Cherry) and my Neon Tetra?
I have read about them being jumpers, is this true? My tank does not have a lid, so obviously a key consideration.
All thoughts on Cherry Barbs and other suitable fish would be welcome.
I have included a link to my jounal thread below so you have a rough idea of how the tank looks:
