Description: Tiger barbs originate from Southeast Asia, and are extremely active and fast-moving fish. They occupy the middle to top sections of the water column. They must be kept in schools (ideally 5-7) to avoid aggression towards tank mates. Caution is required if you're mixing Albino Tiger Barbs with peaceful, slow-moving fish that have long fins (ex: angelfish), as they may nip fins.
