Best Answer

Tiger Barbs (Barbus tetrazona) lay eggs that are fertilised outside the body. The males drive/chase the females in amongst the water plants. The females scatter their eggs and the males scatter their sperm (milt). Most of the fertilised eggs (ova) stick to the plants where they will develop. From spawning Tiger Barbs are on their own and not looked after by their parents.

No, however if it finds some way to, it would be female and male mating and you would have to buy a breeding net and you would have to have a specific temp. When you do that, they will have to be alone. To find more call Pet smart pet co or your local pet shop number for more answers.

It is tough to breed tiger barbs.

Large tanks and plenty of natural conditions are needed for this purpose.

What should you do when the tiger barbs in the tank are starting to nip at the angelfish?

Tiger Barbs should ideally not be kept with angelfish, as they are slow moving and long finned - and therefore tempting to nip at. This can cause great stress to the angelfish, so the tiger barbs should be moved to a separate tank if possible. Alternatively, if the first option is not possible, a constant food supply should be maintained to give the barbs something else to do and distract them from fin-nipping.
