I have 2 tiger barbs I think one is male and the other female.
In my research, a whole 5 minutes worth I have got the adult male when spawning is metallic green with red ventral fins. The female have bright black strips and the nose goes pale. Is this right? I have one of each of these descriptions.
Now I have read the male will head stand and flare to show off to the female then chase her in the morning.
Now I see the male doing the head stand in the corners but what has me confused is the female is forever chasing him.
I'm not interested in breeding just trying to work out if this is what's going on.
