How To Breed Tiger Barbs Part 1

[@robdavinroy1761]

I have been an aquarist since the age of 10. I am not exaggerating when I say to you Mark that you have put together the greatest series of all aspects of tropical fish breeding I have ever seen. You really should consider getting all this in a book. It would be a number one best seller. If you don’t want to spend the time writing, there are ghost writers that will do it with you and publishers that could help make a beautiful book. The majority of tropical fish books written in the past never go into the detail as you have. Please think about it. Thanks for your knowledge and passion.

[@MARKSAQUATICS]

Thank you for the lovely message.

[@lawrenceogorman6634]

Hi Mark, love your content. Ive breed a few species of fish but your level of knowledge is vast. keep teaching us mere mortals dude

[@DustyBoxTreasures]

I don't know why, but I've always loved and have owned tiger barbs, thanks for this video!

[@wotrulke5868]

Hi Mark lovely video thanks, I’ve never kept Tiger Barbs because of their fin nipping reputation but they look interesting & colourful little fish 🐠

[@jasonpeculiar]

I'm one of the ones that's been waiting on this one. I requested it before from you.....and true to your word here it is. Yer some man! Cheers

[@RicardoJunqueira]

You make it look so simple and easy.

[@thorial1]

Thanks for all your hard work!

I’m enjoying a coffee ☕️ whilst watching this fantastic video mate🙂👍🏻

[@Shleeeemp]

This is brilliant, thank you! I love tiger barbs (especially green tiger barbs)…

[@Paul-ro6py]

Nicely done and great video. Just managed to get my panda cory's to spawn, based on tips from your video series. Thanks so much.

[@aquafishworld]

Awesome sir.. Doing great sir.. Such a great work to share all these information.. ❤️❤️

[@mikekayanderson408]

very interesting and look forward to seeing fry!! As I said to you a couple videos ago there is spawning activity in my Gourami tank - but I do not have spare tanks etc to be able to carry through - finally did spot 2 tiny specks under the bubble nest which were free swimming fry - and dad was doing his best to protect them - he sucked them into his mouth and then when he felt danger had passed he spat them out again!!! Then there was only one and he ended up swallowing it himself because I put food in and he had it in his mouth and I think he swallowed it with his dinner!!!! But they would never have thrived as the other fish will get them and I certainly do not have food to give them - it is a shame - but I am not set up for breeding unfortunately!!!!! K

I love your video, Mark. Not got a tank but don't need one as you share yours. Tugger Edinburgh Scotland

Wonderful. Fascinating.

[@carolinemusic100]

Fascinating video as always. 👍

[@IH8stpdppl]

Great info. Thank you

Hi Mark, keep up the good work. I have been following your channel for a few years now and I must say that your videos are really informative and helpful.

[@daniejacobsam9962]

Good work bro ♥️♥️

[@rociomena3150]

Hi Mark. What kind of filter you put so the eggs do not go in the filter. Also what is the decoration you put in the tank you made it? is that wool?

[@مدانيبسكرة]

Welcome Do dome worms provide nutritional value for the female to lay eggs?

[@PULAG]

So only put 1 male female each? Will they not breed if they are in a school

[@thefirehawk8520]

Love your videos Mark. I plan on breeding zebra danios in a large tub outside this year. I bought the tub last fall but still need to set everything up, since I haven't really decided on where's the best place to put it yet. I bought the danios a few weeks ago and they currently live in one of my community tanks so catching them again will be a pain for sure. Have you ever bred any fish in a tub outside other then the koi and goldfish in your pond?

[@MARKSAQUATICS]

Yes Danios breed very easily in the summer months. Just make sure the pond is stable before adding the fish.

[@thefirehawk8520]

@@MARKSAQUATICS I'll probably be using a filter that's currently sitting in one of my other tanks and thought about seeding the water with with pondwater from the shallow parts of our goldfish pond to get things started a few weeks before moving the danios. Your videos on danio breeding were pretty helpful as well, so thanks

[@gsdservice9617]

Inmy area temperature is 40° C, they are able to breed in this temperature

[@pigeonlizard]

I miss this channel

[@MARKSAQUATICS]

I'm back😉👍

@@MARKSAQUATICS FANTASTIC!!

[@williammason4694]

Hey Mark how you doing my name is William and I have a question my boy betta fish build a bubble nest I let him see my female last night for about 30 minutes I woke up this morning and he had a bubble nest in the corner do that mean he wants to breed with her

[@MARKSAQUATICS]

Yes he does. Look in my playlists I've done a video series on breeding them.

[@bhillson]

How do I breed neon green rasboras?

[@MrGigi-dz9cv]

Will frozen food work ??

[@MrGigi-dz9cv]

You boil the mop, but you also need to disinfect everything else.

[@theonus_4483]

Mark the master breeder. You could give him a couple of fish bones and somehow he’d have them spawning in an hour

[@craigquinn8225]

I'd love to see how to breed pseudomagil and thread fin rainbows. they're 2 types of fish I want to get but can be a bit pricey. so can't necessarily just go and get big schools of them. but your videos are really good. and I love watching them thank you for sharing your knowledge 😊

[@robertfaber6796]

Came back for another look at Mark’s excellent work. Guess I’ll also go see part 2.

[@twunderaquatics1770]

Even fish have thier priorities. Lol. Always about food first. Great video 👍

[@alexdavidson5343]

Another fantastic video thanks Mark 👏

[@matthewsmith22]

This is fantastic! I've never kept tiger barbs, or any barbs actually, always fancied them but never really had a suitable setup for them. They're like tiny angel fish! I'm tryingy hand at breeding outdoors this summer, I've set up a plasterers tub with elodea, an overflow and a coarse sponge made out of an old koi prefilter, it's running on a solar air pump at the moment, seems to be working mostly OK. I managed to get a group of 8 medaka rice fish, should be fun. Who knows, might end up filming it! Hopefully by the end of September I'll have my main 5ft tank full of them!

[@MARKSAQUATICS]

Be nice to see the results at the end of the year.

[@giftofthewild6665]

Thanks for the video! When you separate them to feed up the female, do you keep her on her own or with other females?

[@justinhawkins9831]

Great informative video mate 👏👍

[@karabeckles4671]

Want to breed tiger Barb male with rosy barb female

[@touchthesun2448]

I have a single female tiger barb in a 55 with small silver dollars and some tetras. Shes ready to spawn with anything. I thought there was something wrong with her till I saw she was FULL of eggs... I'm going to get her a male and fix up a spawning tank for them. I have had great success with Molly's, but they are easy.

[@MARKSAQUATICS]

You'll be fine good luck.

[@punkbastardo3280]

tank tour video needed

[@aquarialife8418]

Thanks for sharing Mark 🙏

[@markfranklin8831]

Very cool thanks for sharing. I really enjoy watching your videos Mark haven't seen any in awhile but I've differently started rewatching your videos so much great information. Thanks hope you are doing well 🙏✌️👍💗🔥💯

[@davidanderton2437]

2 breeding series going at the same time 😮😮😮😮. Love your work Mark

[@bulldogbhd]

Fantastic as always Mark glad you're back

[@TanksAndTooMuchTime]

Do you have the master breeder title yet??

[@MARKSAQUATICS]

I didn't know there was one. 😀👍

[@TanksAndTooMuchTime]

@@MARKSAQUATICS I’ve obviously been watching too much Aquarium Co-op. It seems to be a program specific to the Greater Seattle Aquarium Society 🤣

[@amberdy12]

👍🏿

[@carlwashbrooke8678]

Hi Mark another great video you make it look easy can I ask some advice I have a 60 litre tank what would you recommend I could have I am looking to probably put 3 or 4 fish that grow to a nice size and would look attractive in a planted aquarium thanks for your time Mark all the best. Carl

[@MARKSAQUATICS]

There's so many species it's really up to you and what you like.😀👍
