Acclimation Guide
Acclimation Guide
1. Prepare Your Aquarium
Make sure your aquarium is fully cycled, with 0 ammonia and 0 nitrite, and the temperature is suitable for your new fish.
2. Start Drip Acclimation
Place your fish and their transport water into a clean container. Using airline tubing, slowly drip water from your aquarium into the container at approximately 2–4 drops per second.
3. Slowly Add Aquarium Water
Over the next 30–60 minutes, allow the water volume to approximately double. This helps your fish gradually adjust to their new water conditions.
4. Transfer Your Fish
Gently net your fish into their new aquarium. Avoid adding transport water to your tank.
5. Give Them Time to Settle
Keep the aquarium lights off for a few hours and wait until the following day before feeding.
Important: Arrived with an issue?
If any fish arrive dead (DOA), keep the transport bag sealed and contact us within 24 hours with clear photos of the fish inside the unopened bag.

Moss Green Tiger Barbs (Puntigrus tetrazona) are striking freshwater schooling fish admired for their deep metallic green to blue-green colouration and active, energetic behaviour. This selectively bred colour variety of the Tiger Barb retains the same bold personality and distinctive body shape, making it an eye-catching addition to larger community aquariums.
They thrive in well-maintained aquariums with stable water quality, good filtration, plenty of plants, and open swimming space. Best kept in groups of at least 6, with larger groups helping distribute natural social interactions and reduce fin-nipping directed at tankmates. They can be semi-aggressive, so avoid slow-moving or long-finned fish and provide plenty of swimming room and cover.
Size, colour intensity, pattern, sex, and appearance may vary.
✓ Deep metallic moss-green colouration
✓ Active and energetic schooling fish
✓ Best kept in groups
✓ Ideal for larger planted community aquariums
