I would like to thank everyone for their advice. I have done considerable research at this point. I will be investing in an additional/larger tank. I will split the fish I currently have between the two. I want to keep the barbs together with at least one shark. I will probably do all the barbs and one shark in the larger tank.
I am happy to report that its been over a week and I have not lost any fish. I have been doing daily water changes and I purchased a testing kit. The ammonia is at a reasonable/safe level and the water has cleared up considerably. The cycling is in process for sure. All the fish are very small right now and dont seem stressed, however I will soon be moving some of them out and into a larger tank.
Again, thank you all for your help. I will keep posting updates.
