my 20g as of right now! really liking how it turned out

Nice! Love cherry barbs. There’s a few nice males in there.

For those unaware, those are cherry barbs. Much less aggressive than most species of barb, they do well in communities. Most of their chasing is for show, they don’t nip fins or bully. They have the best colors when they have plenty of cover, like here. Those especially bright red ones are males, and that really bright one to the left is probably the dominant male.
