I t depends on how many do you have. I f you have less than 5 I suggest that you get some more (if there's enough space in your tank) that way they'll school together all over the tank instead of staying at the heater.
If you have 5 or more try getting more plants (real or fake) so that they be distracted from the heater.
Good luck.

you are able to have not observed that different barbs are picking on the injured fish, yet barbs are infamous for choosing on any injured tankmate, so first factor you're able to do is take it out and seperate it. After that cope with it with Tetra well-known Tonic or in simple terms shop the remoted water clean, and your fish could heal speedy.

Provide more natural or plastic plants and buy a heater guard.

Buy live plants, and check your temperature, your water might be still to cold for them, that might be another reason for them to go the heater
Hope that helps
Good luck
