![]() I have tried groups of 5 & 6 of this barb and always end up with one. Others seem to have luck in groups but in my 125g they would fight, I have 1 large now and he is beautiful.

![]() I have 5!! I had my previous 5 die to ich when introduced by other fish!
They do better in a longer tank!! My first group of 5 all got to be about 5.5 inches!! And they are lightning fast!! I have seen themfrom anywhere between 25 and 80 bucks also these are not barbs!! They have be reclassified ! Hey are Now called puntias dennisonii. I did a bunch of research a while back when I was thinking of breeding them!! When I did the research the only thing I could find on breeding was that their was no recorded case of this in Captivity!! I think has changed tho as they are far more readilly available now!
