Just got 6 tiger barbs and few days on have tested the water. The water has too much nitrate in it and when looking up on the internet what caused this, it mentions over-feeding. I'm feeding them 2 pinches every night. Is that too much? Thanks x
I have a 3 year old established tank. My Tiger Barbs are all dying off... they get a lacy look to their fins, swim erratically and eventually die. None of my other fish seem affected. I've had ICK once a year ago but it doesn't look like that... no white spots on the fish. What IS happening...
it'd be nice if someone answered who didn't feed for a week or more and tiger barbs or similar fish were fine. thanks
if it's not fine, how about fed 3-4 days? i may be able to get someone to come in and feed once.
i have 2 corydora catfish
and have 2 cherry and 3 gold barbs.
i was thinking about gettin 5 bleeding heart tetras.
is this ok or should i just add more cherry adn gold barbs instead of getting the tetras?
i currently have a 90g tank with 4 tinfoil barbs 2 tiger barbs and other catfish, i know tiger barbs are fin nippers and the butterfly fish have got long fins but would the butterfly be too aggresive for the tiger barbs and they wouldn't approach it or would they tear it to shreds?
thanks
