If you feed your fish leafy greens be sure to blance (said: blanch) - (place them in boiling water for a minute or two) them - it removes cellulose, which in large quantity could cause intestinal blockage.
Lettuce is a big favorite of theirs - feed romaine rather than iceberg (less cellulose naturally), but remember to blance it anyway.

All the fish I have ever had love cucumber (including Cherry Barbs). Good luck!

I don't know about tiger barbs never had them, but most fish will eat zucchini, cucumbers, romaine or spinach lettuce, split open peas. Also try some spirulina flakes or veggie flakes.

Cucumbers are favorites, among just about any fish.
Good Luck
