Hi all I'm from Australia I have a 6x2x2 Australian native tank minus my plecos with a 12 inch silver pearch and two 6 inch tandinus catfish.Barramundi r nothing real special here but I love there attitude and am going to start with 2 of them. Was wondering if people on here have had experience with them and what tank mates I can have or if it's just not worth trying .. Cheers

As long as the tankmates are over half the size of the barra/s, they should be fine. Aside from feeding time barramundi aren't all that aggressive. But keeping two of them in a tank that size with alot of tankmates probably won't last too long though - they grow pretty fast.
