i have a 20 gallon fry tank and there is not that many fry in there,ever.i want to get about 10 ghost shrimp because i here they die fast,2-4 tiger barbs,and about 4 amono shrimp or yellow shrimp.im so sorry but in another form there were orange-looking shrimp that had white stripes and i was really interested.if i could get the name i would want to know what would be best for the fish.i know the fry wont fit in small tiger barbs' mouths but ill they attack because they are mean?

A 20 gallon is to small for tiger barbs IMO, and they really need a group of 8-12+ due to their aggression.

tiger's school, and like Clerk already stated, are too big for a 20. They are pretty aggressive fin nippers.

I agree with what is said above. Plus, TBs will eat shrimp and probably fry as well.
