I have a black moore who is injured (scratch on his skin by his eyeball and his tail is getting feathered).. I think it is my tiger barbs who are doing this to him. They are in a 40 gal. tank. I have a 10 gallon tank that I am getting ready for seperation. Should I pull the two barbs out and let him heal in the big tank --- or should I pull him out and let him heal in the 10 gallon tank?
I just read, "This colorful barb is frequently chosen for a community tank, unfortunately they are not an ideal choice for all aquariums. When kept singly or in groups of two three, they will terrorize almost any fish that is unfortunate enough to reside in the same tank. Yet if they are kept in groups of a half dozen or more, they will usually keep their quarrelling to themselves.
Regardless of the numbers kept, it is never advisable to keep Tigers in the same tank with docile, slow moving, or long finned fish."
What should I do??? And HOW do I help him heal??
