“Cherry Barbs (Puntius titteya) are vibrant, captivating fish that bring color and energy to any aquarium. Originating from Sri Lanka, these small and peaceful fish boast stunning cherry-red hues, especially in males, adding a delightful pop of color to your tank.

Feeding Cherry Barbs is straightforward as they readily accept a varied diet. They enjoy a mix of high-quality flakes, pellets, and occasional treats like bloodworms or brine shrimp, thriving on both live and frozen foods.

Ideal tank mates for Cherry Barbs include other peaceful community fish such as tetras, rasboras, and peaceful catfish. Their gentle nature makes them a fantastic addition to community aquariums.

These barbs exhibit minimal aggression, particularly when kept in groups of 6 or more. Creating a school helps distribute any territorial behavior among themselves, reducing stress and promoting harmony.

They prefer well-maintained tanks with stable water parameters: temperature between 72°F to 79°F (22°C to 26°C), pH range of 6.0 to 7.0, and moderately soft to slightly hard water.

Bring the beauty of Cherry Barbs into your aquarium and enjoy their vibrant colors and peaceful demeanor, perfect for both beginner and experienced fish enthusiasts.”
