|tank_compatibility=:Cherry barbs are not as aggressive as their cousins the [[Tiger Barb]]. They make better community fish than most Barbs and should be kept with others of their own kind, keep in groups of 6 or more although they do not tend to form discrete shoals as much as most barbs. Do not keep with slow-moving long-finned fish, although not as nippy as the [[Tiger Barb]], it's best not to risk it.
