Because to keep them in the same aquarium can be not with all fish. Regarding the behavior of these beauties and their compatibility with other residents of the home "underwater area" and will be discussed later in the article.

Barbs in nature

Will these interesting inhabitants of the underwater world are found in almost all waters of Indonesia, China, Africa and India. Some species live in the rivers of our country. Barbus belongs to the family Cyprinidae, the most species, which added to the category field. This is usually a very large fish with extremely tasty meat. Varieties, bred in aquariums, usually particularly large sizes are no different. Their body length is usually not more than 5-7 cm

Sumatran barbs

Fans Often kept in aquariums unpretentious Sumatran barbs. This is quite a beautiful fish silver color with transverse black stripes on the body and red lower fins. Found among Sumatran barbs and albinos. Scales of the last shots with gold, and the stripes are white and almost invisible. Compatible barbs with other fish in that case, if we are talking about sumatrana varieties, doubtful in many cases. To select neighbors for these whales should be especially careful. The fact that this is the most aggressive kind.

Barbs "Mutant"

These fish are also often seen in aquariums lovers. Body shape they similar to the shape of the body, Sumatran barbs. The difference is the color. This kind of can become a real decoration of your aquarium due to its bright dark green scales, red rilsu and black fins with red okaemkoy. The nature of the green barbs a little softer than the Sumatran, but for them to choose neighbors also need to correct.

Other types

Is Very popular as the barbs karkhanis, which is also called fire. Female barbs this species is painted in silver color, the males have the scales pink-red. There are other varieties of these fish-al, arulius, Schubert, cherry, Denison, etc.

The nature of the barbs

As mentioned earlier, fish is extremely mobile. So for them it is best to buy aquarium elongated in length. The composition of the water for these fish is not critical. One of their main characteristics include simplicity. Therefore, the compatibility of the barbs with other fish, the same undemanding, fairly active and not too aggressive-the question of doubt does not cause. Who, exactly, it is possible for them to plant, just below consider in all the details.

fish Barbus compatible

Another feature of the barbs is that they love to wag the long fins and tails of their neighbors in the aquarium. It is in the selection of residents of his home underwater area should also be considered.

Barbs and angelfish

It is believed that the two fish species coexist in the same aquarium is not too good. But in fact, in most cases, it all depends on the conditions of detention in this particular aquarium. If he has a substantial amount (not less than 100 l), the cohabitation of these two species is possible. But then, when barbs in the aquarium is not too much, and angelfish are big enough. However, even under these conditions, to plant the last to be careful. The first time the behavior of fish you need to watch for. Most likely, skalyariy out of the tank soon still have to clean up. Danger for them will be less in that case, if they put in the aquarium first, and then a little later to settle a few barbs. Thus angelfish will feel on its territory. Active whales will have more on it and get comfortable. Also peaceful relations depend on the age at which you purchased the barbs and angelfish. The compatibility of the fish in that case, if they grew up together, many aquarists is beyond doubt.

Sumatran barbs compatible

Barbs and neon

Givenot of these two varieties with each other – the issue is also quite controversial. Experts believe that anything particularly good this neighborhood can not finish. However, many aquarists are actually quite well kept together fish such as barbs and neons. The compatibility of these two species in fact depends on many factors. For example, in the case if the aquarium is planted with many plants, neonika will be where to hide, and the barbs are unlikely to cause them significant harm. In principle, the rules of cohabitation in this case are the same as in the case of skalyariy. That is better to plant the neons to barbs, and not Vice versa, and to buy fish at a very young age.

Barbs and guppies: compatibility

Luppescu – perhaps the most favorite and popular aquarium fish. Therefore, the question of whether you can contain barbs with them, quite naturally. In fact, this neighborhood is usually does not end well. Hooked to the barbs guppies will surely be pounded to death. In the same case, if the fish grew up together, with them, of course, nothing will happen. However, the beautiful fins guppy aquarium owners enjoy are unlikely to succeed.

As mentioned above, barbs and neons, the compatibility of which is also questionable, good to get along with in that case, if the aquarium has many plants. The same applies to kupesic. Put in the aquarium more vallisneri, kimbob, water ferns, etc., and they will be where to hide from the annoying striped or green neighbors.

Fish Barbus: compatibility with cichlids

In this case, good-neighbourly relations, the aquarist to expect and not worth it. And this time it is not in the barbs. Cichlids – perhaps the most aggressive fish of all, is intended for domestic breeding in aquariums. Don't they get along practically with anybody. The only fish they can't touch – a different kind of bottom catfish. You can only try to contain the barbs together adults and young calidos. After the last grow, from the tank they best be removed. Even being familiar with the local barbs, cichlids adults the opportunity to become the sole masters of the territory will not miss.

What fish can contain

Very good for such fish as barbs Sumatran compatible danushkodi, rirea. The behaviour is similar to neon. However, they are not so fastidious and timid, and are not subject to stress. Therefore, do not die from the slightest breeze. In addition, from this neighbourhood will benefit and decorative qualities of the aquarium. Lateral stripes of Sumatran beauties are very well combined with a longitudinal zebrafish.

Barbus compatibility with other fishes

Compatible barbs with other fish no doubt and if we are talking about the representatives of the tetras. This can be, for example, ornatus, minors, terezie or pristella. As cichlids, barbs do not touch different kinds of catfish. They also get along well with an active sword. Being by nature a bit aggressive last, most likely, the offense itself will not give. Same goes for the gourami and parrots.

barbs and angelfish compatibility

The above varieties may be barbs are very good neighbors. However, most often in aquariums - for variety - planted at the same time just different varieties. Very good live together with the Sumatran barbs, fire, cherry, green, etc.

What fish can't be kept in General

If a scalar or even guppies under certain conditions, with the barbs to get another can, the gourami from such a troubled neighborhood thrilled to be unlikely. With aggressive same astronotus have barbs certainly begin long lasting and very serious conflicts. Of course, it is not necessary to plant these fish and vualehvostki.

Aquarium fish barbs which compatibility with other species, as we have seen, depends largely on the conditions of cultivation, in spite of its simplicity, the observance of certain rules of care still require. Experts recommend:

  1. Contain only groups.
  2. Be Sure to put in the aquarium, lots of plants. They should be one of the sources of oxygen required for the barbs.
  3. The Minimum amount of aquarium for species of small size (Sumatran, "mutants", etc.) – 50 litres.
  4. Should Definitely arrange aeration and filtration.
