Roseline Barb. Natural Range: Kerala and Karnataka, India Source: Aquarium Bred and Raised Estimated size at shipping: 1.25-2.5" Adult Size: around 3-4" Overview: Unique among barbs, this unmistakable fish cause a huge stir when it first arrived on the scene in the 1990's. I still remember seeing these for the first time at Capital Aquarium in Sacrament back when I was a teenager. With their bright red coloration and bold tail markings, they were unlike any barb I had ever seen. And they continue to impress today. Juveniles have a blotchy pattern. This is normal and the blotches will disappear as the fish mature. Barbs, named for the sensory barbels on their mouths, come in a wide range of shapes, sizes, and temperaments. Most are peaceful, energetic fishes which add movement and color to their aquariums. Source: Dan's Fish stock list.
