Should i keep a Lima Shovelnose with checkerboard barbs and neon tetras. I dont want the little fish to be eaten but i want to get my Lima out of the 10 gallon and hopefully big enough to be able to go in a 55 gallon.

Shovelnose shouldn't be kept with barbs and tetras as they will most likely be food. What do you mean "hopefully big enough to be able to go in a 55 gallon"? A 55 Gallon is the smallest you should put him into to start with regardless of what size he is now. He will no doubt appreciate the extra space. Good luck!

double post.....

I get a feeling this is what we used to call a "troll" in the salad days

A lima with tetra's; a lima and eclipse in a 10G; what's next?

perhaps?
