Albino Tiger Barb

About the Tiger Barb

The Albino Tiger Barb is a color variation of the popular Tiger Barb, characterized by its pale, cream-colored body with faint orange or pinkish hues and the classic Tiger Barb black vertical stripes, which are more subtle due to its albino nature. They typically grow to 2-3 inches and have red or orange-tinged fins. Like their non-albino counterparts, they are active and social, best kept in groups of 6 or more, and can be nippy towards slower-moving fish.
