Green Barbs (Barbodes semifasciolatus) are known for being active and generally peaceful fish, especially when kept in a proper school. They exhibit schooling behavior and are most comfortable and display their best colors when in groups of at least six or more individuals. While generally peaceful towards other species, they can sometimes be a bit boisterous and may nip the fins of slow-moving or long-finned fish if not kept in a sufficient school or in overly crowded conditions.
