I had 8 tiger barbs in my established 95 litre, but one died today. Before he died he was swimming in circles and doing back flips while breathing heavily. All the others are healthy. My water quality is good and well oxygenated. The only thing I noticed was he was a little bloated looking and that 2 of the barbs had been fighting so it could have been him!! They are greedy eaters. Could he of over indulged or something to cause this? I don't over feed, they get fed every other day on a tiny amount of hikari micro pellets. Or could he have been injured fighting?
