Always really liked the Tiger Barbs for their striking colors and lively behavior and size. Almost decided on just a TB tank, but went for a community tank instead. Really like your Tiger school!
I love my little school of tiger barbs! I used to keep community tanks as well, but I breed a lot, so it's easier with just one species at a time. I do miss my community tanks though. 🤗
My GloSkirt Tetras do the same thing. All 14 of them are evenly spaced out in a 55 long - each “owning” their own little territory in the tank. They scarily behave like piranha, especially during feeding time or when hunting down sick or elderly guppies. I get one hour of blue moonlight at night and they are wild to see glowing in there.
Bitey, nippy little beasts. Watching your barbs in action is mesmerizing experience. What is the reason of quarrel? Peace of food, entering the territory, love affairs?
That is fun. I hope only pride was bruised. It looked like ther was a few hooks that landed to the sides of an opponent. As always, beautiful filming and lovely story telling. Thank you again. 😊
Angelfish also quarrel all the time. Fighting fish have no teeth, but they kill each other. My angelfish killed the fighters and ate them. It was my bad experience when I kept them together in a very large aquarium.
I must say, you have quite a nice group of very healthy looking and nicely colored up tiger barbs. Thanks for getting this footage. In order to keep them healthy, how often do you feed yours? do you stick mostly to veggie (low protein) foods?
im surprised that they lip lock at all, ive never known another species of barb that does this. Black ruby barbs will spin around each other and both them and cherry barbs will flare at and chase each other, but ive never seen lip locking. Thats just the barbs ive kept though. Wonder if the lip locking is connected with the nastier temperament of tiger barbs as compared to the other two i mentioned.
@TheDave333 I cannot reply you your replies to me by tapping on your reply. This is the type & kind of shenanigans that fed me up and drove me out of TH-cam. I cannot say, with honesty, that it's wonderful to be back.😡
You've got some happy, healthy tigers there Dave!
Yes I do! I love them! 🤗

My favourite tank was a large tank of tigerbarbs, a red tail black shark, torpedo barbs, bristle nose plecos.
They are simply stunning when they're flaring their fins
I love the bright orange fins. Awesome fish!
Awesome. Thanks for the video.
Thanks for watching. 🤗
This brings me back to my High School locker room!
Ahh the good old days. We always took our beefs to the parking lot after school.
@ I recall the lip-locking too, always a fight for dominance!
The kids with braces always had the upper hand though!
Always cool to see an evenly matched duo spar - and that goes for any fish species!
Couldn't agree more!

You tank sounds like a lot of fun to watch. Fish are so cool! 🐠🦈🐟

They are over territory for breeding.
Oh, this is the case. They are so excited, fights occur everyday. You don't see everything, they clarify their fishy rights to each other 🐠
Lovely grumpy fish
My little toothless tigers. ❤

You're very welcome. Thanks for watching and taking the time to leave a comment. ❤❤❤

Angelfish and bettas can be very aggressive. Once angelfish reach sexual maturity, they become like little devils instead of angels. ❤
Superb!
Thank you! Cheers!
Beautiful

Thanks for watching the video. I feed them twice per day with Hikari carnivore pellets, and once a week they get nothing.
Your tiger barbs are absolutely gorgeous. They are such a beautiful yet ornery species.
They are a rowdy bunch that's for sure. ❤
Are they very easy to breed ? What conditions do they need to breed ?
I wouldn't say that they're easy to breed, but I didn't find it difficult. Watch this video for more details. th-cam.com/video/Fb0UC5Po-aA/w-d-xo.html

Maybe it's connected, but it's hard to say. Cichlids lip-lock a lot, but you're right it's less common in barbs.
I was betting on the stripy one winning, and I was right.
😂😂😂
Ha ha! You really now how to pick them! Good call. ❤
What size is the tank and what temp do you keep them at?
It's a 29 gallon tank, and the temp. is somewhere around 78 degrees.
