Default Tiger Barbs and Leopard Danios

Moments before spontaneously combusting muddyfox at
was heard opining:

Hi,

Would a small group of Tiger Barbs (say 6-8) be OK with Leopard
Danios. The reserach I've done suggests that the danios are fast
enough to keep away from the tigers when they need to but I've never
kept tigers before(or any kind of barb for that matter) and I'm not
sure how to deal with their aggresion towards tank mates? Maybe a
spp tank would be best but that would leave the top of the tank free
of fish. Ho hum...

===============
The Tigers will bother other fish - at least all those I ever had did. They
also can get quite large when well cared for. What you see in the stores
are very young T-barbs.
