Really, how often should I feed my fish? I have a 29gal tank and a lot of little fish: zebra, black neon, blue neon, and tiger barbs. I keep seeing fish doing barrel rolls, mostly the neons, and they end up dead. I see the other fish nipping on them. I mean, fuck, I take the fish in, and they fucking die on me. I'm just setting up a tank, and it is not a friendly environment.

You should feed them 1-2 times a day. Buy some of the water testing tests at petsmart and see if the water is testing OK. Sometimes you can take some of your aquarium water to the place you bought the fish and they'll test it for you for free.

If you don't understand why your fish could be dying, you really haven't done enough research. I'm not trying to be an asshole here, I'm just saying.

Tiger barbs are notoriously aggressive. Neons and zebras are gentle little community fish. You're really not going to be able to get them to coexist peacefully in such a small tank.. unless you have a ton of plant cover, and even then it's like uhhhhh.
