Metallic Platinum Green Tiger Barb Puntius Tetrazona 3cm

“Meet the vibrant and energetic Tiger Barb (Puntius Tetrazona), a captivating addition to any aquarium. Originating from Southeast Asia, these lively fish boast striking black stripes that resemble a tiger’s pattern, adding a splash of excitement to your tank.

Feeding these omnivores is a delight as they eagerly accept various foods, including flakes, pellets, live, or frozen fare. Their diet can be enriched with occasional treats like bloodworms or brine shrimp.

Known for their playful nature, Tiger Barbs thrive in schools of at least five to diminish any nippiness among themselves. When choosing tank mates, opt for robust, similarly sized fish to avoid potential aggression, as Tiger Barbs can occasionally display fin nipping tendencies.

Their vivaciousness makes them a joy to watch, but their active behavior requires a well-maintained aquarium of at least 20 gallons. Ensure moderate water flow and ample hiding spots amidst plants and decorations to mimic their natural habitat.

With a moderate care level, Tiger Barbs suit aquarists with some prior experience in maintaining freshwater tanks. They prefer slightly acidic to neutral water (pH 6.0-7.0) with temperatures between 72-79°F (22-26°C) to thrive and display their best colors.

Add these stunning Tiger Barbs to your tank for an engaging and visually captivating aquatic experience!”
