Golden body colour is a feature of the albino strain, making a nice contrast to the dark banded wild form. Tiger Barbs are best kept in a school of 6 or more. Do not keep with fish with long flowing fins such as Angels or Guppies, as the barbs may nip their fins. Grows to about 6-7cm.
The Barb is an active, colourful and popular aquarium fish. They are easy to feed, taking a wide variety of foods including dried food.
Barbs will command your attention! They enjoy swimming all over the tank at a breakneck pace. Like much tropical fish, the male is generally more colourful, while the female is less colourful.
Barbs will school when in a group of at least five or six and are less likely to bother other fish when in a group together. Many species are considered unsuitable in aquaria with slow-moving, long-finned tankmates.
