I would like to add some tiger barbs to a lightly planted 55 gal, currently holding 2 medium (3-4") clown loaches and 6 small otos. I saw over at Tim's Tropicals that they do not consider otos and tiger barbs compatible, though there are several other fishes (including the clown loaches) that are compatible with both. Are the tigers really too aggressive for the otos, or is there some other consideration I've missed?
