{"product_id":"tiger-barbs","title":"Tiger barbs","description":"\u003cp\u003eTiger barbs are native to Indonesia and Thailand. Growing up to 8cm in length, tiger barbs are best identified by their bands of orange and black stripe that run vertically down their bodies. Tiger barbs are a vibrant, energetic freshwater fish, semi aggressive in nature so need to be housed carefully and with suitable tank mates. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpecial requirements: Tiger barbs have a reputation for being aggressive and for fin nipping. This is most commonly seen, when they are kept in small numbers. Tiger barbs are best kept in groups of ten or more. In these numbers, they will establish a pecking order but will spend their days chasing each other around the tank, expending their energy having fun, as supposed to asserting dominance. Provide dense aquarium around the perimeter of the tank on three sides, making them feel safe and secure, whilst having free, open water swimming space in the middle. Consider robust plants such as java fern and annubias, bitter in taste that they are less likely to nibble.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Diet: At Wirral Aquatics we feed \u003ca target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wirralaquatics.co.uk\/products\/ebo-foods-pro-soft-artemia\"\u003eEBO Pro soft artemia\u003c\/a\u003e, insect, \u003ca target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wirralaquatics.co.uk\/products\/ebo-foods-pro-soft-mussel-125g\"\u003emussel\u003c\/a\u003e and spirulina.
