Tiger barbs are an incredible cyprinid fish from India. There are no prizes for Guessing how these fish got their name!

Tiger barbs should be kept in small groups of four or more fish. Many barbs have an reputation as fin-nippers. This behaviour is normally caused by stress and can often be reduced or avoided by keeping a larger number of the same species together. Nevertheless, It is usually best to avoid keeping slower moving species with long fins such as Guppies and Siamese Fighters with these fish.

The best set up for these fish would be an aquarium with areas of open water combined with groups of plants or ornaments. Ideal tank mates are fast moving, similar sized fish such as Rosy Barbs, Gouramis, small catfish and mollies.
Being mid water feeders, the best diet to offer is a combination of live foods, frozen food and slow sinking pellets or flake.
