hello guys!
im new here i have a 55 gal tank with 5 rainbow sharks (2 albino and 3 rainbow) they are about 3-4" long and 7 neon rosy barbs, i have them for about 6 months now, they're doing pretty fine, no issues about them. i was wondering if i could add blood parrot on my tank, i know they are hybrid and some people boycott those stores who sells them, but i cant resist their beauty, do you guys know if they are compatible with my rainbow shark and neon rosy barb?
help!

the blood parrots will be fine even though I am one of those fish keepers that boycott them but 5 rainbow sharks, also known as ruby sharks is asking for serious problems, when they mature they will become territorial and constantly fight with each other, I would definately consider just leaving one shark in the tank

Even 1 rainbow shark can be trouble, i had a 3" fish and it killed my clown loaches and nean tetra's in 2 nights which was wierd because there was heaps of hiding spots and the were fed well.
