    This ability is not a mana ability. It goes on the stack and can be responded to.

    On the other hand, a player can tap lands for mana, let the Manabarbs triggered abilities be put on the stack, and then respond to those abilities by casting an instant or activating an ability using that mana. In that case, the spell or ability will resolve first.

    The ability will trigger each time a land is tapped for mana. Each ability is separate.
