🐟 Green Tiger Barb (Puntigrus tetrazona var. “Green”)
Freshwater Barb • Active Schooling • Community Fish • Color Morph
 
📋 The Green Tiger Barb (Puntigrus tetrazona var. “Green”) is a striking color morph of the classic Tiger Barb, developed through selective breeding. Its iridescent emerald-green body contrasts beautifully against subtle black striping and orange accents on the fins. Under proper lighting, these fish shimmer with a metallic teal hue that stands out vividly in planted aquariums.
They are energetic, social, and highly active, best kept in groups of six or more to maintain peaceful behavior and natural shoaling dynamics. Green Tiger Barbs thrive in clean, well-filtered aquariums with moderate flow, showing their best colors against dark substrates and lush greenery.
This hardy, beginner-friendly variant adds both motion and color depth to any freshwater community setup.
