The Green Tiger Barb is a colorful and active freshwater fish, known for its vibrant green body with black vertical stripes that resemble the pattern of a tiger. This species is a lively swimmer and is best kept in schools of 6 or more to promote natural schooling behavior. Green Tiger Barbs are semi-aggressive and can display fin-nipping behavior, so it’s important to keep them with other active and robust fish that can handle their playful nature. Despite their feisty temperament, their striking appearance and energetic behavior make them a popular choice for aquariums.
