[HD] My big 3 inch Tiger barbs / 7,5cm Sumatrabarben [4/4]

[PetProdigies]

my rule of thumb for the biggest fish in your tank is the fish cannot grow to more than 1/8 of each dimension of the tank so in a 20 gal high demensionsd are Lxwxh 24x16(i think)X16 in so a fish that is full grown at no longer than 3in no fatter than 2in and no taller than 2 in is the biggest you can have also the length cant be more than 1/4 of the width of the tank (for those super long tanks)

[borhanus]

compare to the gourami i would say its 1.5 inch.3 inch means it would be like a adult nemo fish,which its not

[xlxshanexlx]

@borhanus those are like 2.5'-3' man..

[drkhalidhamdy]

what is your filter type?

[petrwarry72]

looks nice 5* mate

[vqfive]

Tiger barbs would be awesome if the could grow to 12" size

[PetProdigies]

@vqfive i am positive someone will get a hybrid like that and they will take over the fish population. they are going to cause the Apocalypse for the fish world

[advtactics01]

@TheSCFisher i read somewhere they grow 1/2 inch a month...

[OmniPoe2]

Minimum tank size for 10 tiger barbs is a 30gal(US) an that's pushing it I would say a 55 or bigger

[PetProdigies]

@OmniPoe2 my barbs i have had for 2 years now i got them at 1in in legth now in 2 years they seem to have maxed out at 1.5 in thats my barbs for what ever reason all the fish in that tank have maxed out smaller than normal im happy about that. there in a 20 gal. with my 3 gouramis that maxed out at 2.5 inches there blue opaline and platinum . the only one i could see why he maxed out at 25 in is because he was in a ten gal for most of his life. i dont know why my fish maxed out smaller.

[MyFishCare101]

Can you please tell me the minimum tank size for a shoal of tiger barbs if there are no other fish in the tank? Maybe about ten barbs? Thanks :)

[TheRdjj4]

@MyFishCare101 - I have a 29 gallon with 8 Tigers and 6 White clouds and a Flying Fox, no problemo.

[Fishplanebusmusiclol]

@MyFishCare101 I'd say 20-30 gallons minimum, but the more, the better. :)

[500bmw1]

Tiger barb chubby lol..

[utubewantsmeregister]

Im big fan of tigers. I have always made planted tanks but tigers were pulling my ground plants and were agrassive against to other fish. Now Im making an south eastern asia biotope without plants with only tiger barbs , around 40 in 250 liter. As ı know tigers grow 7 cm in natural environment I want them hit to 7 cm what diet should i offer to them ?

[AreYouBoredShow]

ok will this fit in a 10 gallon tank 3 neon tetras 2 glowlight tetras 3 glo lite fish 1 sucker fish 1 danio 2 guppies 2 colored tetras 1 tiger barb and 1 rosy barb

[will20091995]

@AreYouBoredShow

my friend got tiger barbs with guppies , tiger barbs nip guppies tail and eat their fry .,.. dunno about urs

[PurpleSpades]

@AreYouBoredShow

overcrowded, and school fish should have min. 3 each

[VolkswagOwned]

@AreYouBoredShow Hmmmm, It would "fit" but I wouldnt do it. I have a 10 gal w/ 3 Tiger Barbs and a Red-finned shark. That's all Im gonna have. Considering the fish are going to get larger, I might get a couple of barbs but thats all. I say, 3 barbs, 2 neons, 2 glows, and a sucker

[AreYouBoredShow]

@VolkswagOwned thanks for the advice but i did get 2 neon tetras,1 bleeding heart tetra,1 sucker fish,1 danio,2 guppies,and 1 serpae tetra in a 10 gallon and they are all happy and healthy except for the guppies they keep dying

ive had 6 years of expierience i know whats best lol i just wanted to see if people knew what they were talking about good answer

[VolkswagOwned]

@AreYouBoredShow Nice nice, hahaha ohh okayy. I'm a beginner enthusiast :P

[TheRdjj4]

@AreYouBoredShow -for some of the fish you have they should be kept in larger groups or they're more shy, get stressed easily and Die earlier, especially Neons. How are the 2 neons doing anyway? I wish I could add only 3 to my 29 gal. because it's almost maxed out.

[Robbieifyoucan]

@AreYouBoredShow not really, it would look kinda funky anyways those fish wont really compliment each others unique llooks. But i guess you could but wont have very happy fish

[KrunchyBiscuit]

Awesome tank :D

[blownable]

Appetizers.....mmmmmm

[TheKingfisher22]

Wow great show size tigers and great set up too- love the bogwood

Are they still nippy when they reach that size

kev

[scarhbar23]

I bet you get asked alot, but how did you get them so big??

[wannermike2]

Hatte auch welche , aber 7,5 cm wurden die nicht , schöne Fische .

[sailorminimoon1000]

They grow??? How big!? I have 4 in a small bowl tank is that good???????

[HolySasquatchTurd]

@sailorminimoon1000 No, that's horrible

[bcdrummer]

@sailorminimoon1000 Get them out of there! you should keep ANY fish in a bowl. Get them into a 20g tank or bigger with a heater and good filter. save them please.

[awinski999]

they look big. until you put them next to an american cichlid haha

[ozzymann]

das ist jetzt ein neues das ich noch nicht gesehen habe ! ich hab noch 5 sumatrabarben die leben schon seit 7 jahren bei mir hab sie gekauft als sie noch ganz klein waren ^^ sind genauso groß. natürlich hab ich zu denen noch einige kleine dazugekauft als ich mich entschieden habe hauptsächlich diese fische zu halten.

[1m0rek0]

i hope my tiger barbs live this long and get that ig!!!

[Brbara30]
