Yikes! I knew T-Barbs were fin nippers but this is ridiculous!
I just noticed one of the small Tiger Barbs in my 20G growout tank was missing its tail. The other Tbarbs have nipped the tail all the way down to the body.
I've moved him to my q-tank. I don't think anyone in there will bother him.
The poor guy seems healthy, but its pretty sad to watch him trying to swim around.
Is this normal? Or did the other barbs sense something wrong with him to begin with?
