whats the stockingon that? what species are in there besides the goldfish
 
That was hard to make out... I think I saw an arulias barb, but that was all I could ID... possibly. Post a list of what all is in that tank.
 
Nice busy tank you got there! I like my barb tank to. :)
 
Filament barbs (Puntius filamentosa), Spanner Barb or T-barb ( [SIZE=-1]Puntius lateristriga),[/SIZE][SIZE=-1] Red Fin[/SIZE][SIZE=-1] [/SIZE][SIZE=-1]Cigar Shark ([/SIZE][SIZE=-1]Leptobarbus hoevenii) and a couple I couldnt see clearly. Busy active tank!!

Neolissochilus stracheyi
Hypselobarbus jerdoni
Tor tambroides
Bangana behri
Barilius
Labeo

Quite a collection there Darwin Guy, you at Darwin show in a couple of weeks?
 
Wow thats alot of barbs! I know its a matter of preference but that tank is really loud. That would take away from the calming factor for me. Its still a nice tank full of fish tho so dont get me wrong.
 
Hi all the fish in there form memory are probarbus,stracheyi,puntioplites,neollisachilus hexagonolepis? labeo calbasu.labeo rohita ,kochinensis barbs they`re the spanner ones ,filaments two unidentified tor species ,sarana barbs ,barulius canarense ,osteocheilus hasselti,dangila lineata ,one hampala ,scaphognathops,jedoni a lemonfin type a couple of marbled sleepers and three bumble bee cats oh and a couple of pictus cats well overstocked i know but tank is well filtered and aerated and i do have years of experience.
I can`t take the credit for growing the biggest ones up i was given them by a friend of mine Andy Rushworth as he was closing a tank down at the time .
The stracheyi where mine originally i gave them to Andy four years ago when i was splitting up from my first wife they were about 6" then now they are close to a foot and have come back home so to speak.
