Redtail Shark compatibility

Question
Hi, I was wondering what other fish are compatible with a redtail.  I'm setting up a 10 gal. tank, and would like to have one, but I'm not entirely sure if it'll be too large or aggressive with other small fish.

Thanks,
Eamon

Answer
Hello Eamon,
If you only have a ten gallon tank, it would be best not to get the red tail shark. If I remember correctly they grow anywhere from 4 to 6 inches, and you won't have enough room to fit any other semi-aggressive in there.
You best bet would be to go with some smaller ones, such as the tiger barbs and maybe a loach.
If you're willing to go community, you'll have a much larger selection, or if you get a bigger tank you can do the semi-aggressive much easier.
