About

The Green Tiger Barb is a selectively bred colour morph of Puntigrus tetrazona where the body colouration is replaced by metallic green iridescence with dark black banding. Behaviour and care requirements are identical to the standard Tiger Barb. Spectacular in mixed schools with regular Tiger Barbs. Pack of 8.

Care Guide

Keep in groups of 8+ in 80 L or more. Same care as regular Tiger Barb. Fin-nipper — avoid long-finned tankmates. Feed quality flake, small pellets, and frozen daphnia. Active and hardy. Mix with regular Tiger Barbs for a visually striking school.
