Red Tail Tinfoil Barbs in 55 gallon

Can I get a school of Red Tail Tinfoil Barbs in a 55gallon with a Senegal Bichir?

Don't confuse Red Tail Tinfoil Barbs with Tinfoil Barbs, different fish.

A couple profiles list them at about 8 inches - too big for a 55.

Agreed, they grow too big for a 55 tank, 5-6ft long tank is required as they are extremely active swimmers.
