🐟 Green Tiger Barb

It doesn’t just shimmer — it charges.

The Green Tiger Barb hits the water like a living gemstone. Deep emerald greens, metallic undertones, and that classic tiger pattern ghosting beneath the surface give this fish a look that feels electric. When the school turns, the whole group flashes like a moving shard of jade — bold, bright, and impossible to ignore.

Males fire up even harder with age, throwing richer greens and sharper contrast, turning every lap across the tank into a full‑tilt display of color and attitude.

This isn’t your everyday barb. At Uncle Joe’s Fish Shed, we raise them right here in Florida or bring them in small, hand‑selected batches from trusted local breeders who match our standards. No mass‑produced stock. No washed‑out imports. Just limited‑run, hobby‑grade fish chosen for saturation, strength, and that unmistakable Tiger Barb energy.

Limited runs only — because real quality isn’t manufactured. It’s curated.
