bar santa filomena Green Tiger Barb Tank

Green tiger barbs are the morphed form of regular Tiger Barbs, they grow about the same size, behave the same, only difference is the color. Green tiger barbs are know by few other names green Puntius tetrazona, moss green tiger barbs, green moss tiger barb, moss-banded tiger barb, platinum green tiger barb. however the most common name remains green tiger barb. There is also albino variant of tiger barb that you see in the video. They don't occur naturally these are breeds due to selective and captive breeding of regular tiger barbs. Dark body with lighter yellowish to orange abdomen, red nose and fins makes this fish an attractive fish in an planted tank.
Green tiger barb tank you see was set-up about 2 months back, plants have just started to grow, the colors on the green tiger barbs change all day, during the day they are lighter and by evening they are dark and sometimes they look dark navy blue. The color of green tiger barb is a good indicator of changes in water parameter, temperature, breeding time or even health condition. the lighter color indicates stress, dark colors indicate they doing good and usually display these colors when they are aggressive or picking up a pecking order or during breeding. Male green tiger barbs also develop red nose and reddish fins while breeding, this is same as regular tiger barbs. Female green tiger barbs are more rounded-off in shape and look larger than males.They enjoy live plants in their tank, they may nip fins of slow moving fish, so choose the right tank mates, The tank you see in the video is 20 gallon and should suffice a schooling green tiger barbs of 6 to 10 at this size.

Aquarium Care for green tiger barb -
Water Parameters -
pH range - 6.5 to 7.5
Temperature range - 77 to 82 °F or 25 to 27.8 °C
Water Hardness - 5 to 15 dGH
Tank Decor - It has to be a planted & nicely oxygenated. Driftwood, and rocks can be used to create hiding places.
Filtration - The tank has to be nicely aerated, else you would see these fish gasping for air.
Tank size - 20 Gallon for 6 to 10 & 30 gallon for more
Tank mates - I have kept green tiger barbs with rosy barbs, tinfoil barbs, small pleco, Chinese algae eater, black skirt tetras, juvenile clown loach, yoyo loach, red tail and Colombian sharks, they do good in group of 8 to 10 and can also be kept with albino tiger barbs or regular tiger barbs.
Food - They eat readily available fish food, pellets, flakes, live & frozen food can be fed. They love to eat blood worms, daphnia, micro worms. These fish are Omnivores.
Tank Maintenance - Since its a planted tank you need good lighting & a HOB filter works well. For Planted tanks check your water parameters or simply follow weekly water change of 25%.
