@PaulMartin61, Sorry to hear about the fire and the loss of your
fish. The new tank is looking good, should hopefully help things
get back on track. I only have 9 Tigers myself, 30 must have
been a very impressive sight.

Odessa barbs are my fav followed by Celestial Pearl Danios. It's
just a pity that the CPDs are so small and shy.
Thanks to Google for the photos ;)

Yoyo Loaches...I can never have enough of their crazy antics. Or
just loaches in general.

I've seen these fish before in my LFS, but don't really know
enough about them. Would they be a good addition to a planted
tank with Tiger Barbs?

For some reason the quote feature is malfunctioning for me.
"I've seen these fish before in my LFS, but don't really know

tank with Tiger Barbs?"
Temp and ph wise both fish are compatable. The only thing about
any loach is that they sometimes like to dig. I've never really
had mine do any great damage to any plants, and if plants are
well rooted these fish are not going to be able to do much. My
old bunch used to dig a lot when I conditioned them to find
black-worms in the sand. If you don't do that they wont' bother
the substrate as much.
I've got derps right that have figured out how to steal flake
food from the dithers. So it's always a bag of fun what a
particular shoal will end up doing. This is the first group I've
had that do this which means I have to feed extra so the other
fish get fed.
