i am buyin a tank from a friend for 50 bucks tonight and he is giving me 1 shark, 3 tiger barbs and 2 cichlids. do you think my 4 giant danio's will be ok in the tank with them?
the giant danios can be a bit aggressive and are decent sized fish so they should be alright with barbs and the shark and even the cichlids, just keep an eye on them. i wouldnt gaurantee itll work but it can
Do you know what kind of cichlids you are getting?
I agree with kamazza, giant danios are pretty tough active fish. I think there is a good chance it will work out.
