Im thinkin about adding a few archers to my tiger tank. Would they b ok together? The tigers are (1) 5" IT and (3) 2.5" NTT's. And the archers are 2-3" according to the unknowledgable lfs employee...He told me that there is only 1 type of tiger..:ROFL:

I was planning on getting the 3 that they have..
 
Sinister J has this combo. I'm sure he can give you good info ;)
 
Archers should be perfectly fine. Just check if the shop is keeping them in fresh or brackish. If in brackish slowly aclimate them to fresh. If fresh, no probs. Keep an eye on them, if not enough salt int he water for them they will get patches of fungus. I keep mine in fresh but with 1 tablespoon of rock salt per 10g. Archers and dats leave each other alone and archers are great dithers to teach your dats to eat floating dried foods from the top. Heres a few pics of my tanks
