Sorry which do you want to know? You should stick a nice big red circle around the one you want an ID for.

Hi, sorry if I did not make it clear enough, I did say "Its not the Red Rainbows or Herotilapia Multispinosa", that just leaves the fish with strips.
Thanks firstthebanker |

I could see 4 species, so eliminating 2 didnt help but could be wrong.
To me, they look a bit like mature odessa barbs.  *Edit* Or possibly a 'clown' barb.

If it helps the shop had some adults and they were about 4 to 5 inches maybe bigger, I would go back to the shop but it is over 60 miles awayand I actually went for the Herotilapia, but liked the look of these some got 6 of these aswell. LOL
They dont have any of the little tenderills in the mouth region. firstthebanker This post has been edited by firstthebanker: Jul 7 2008, 11:57 AM |

If it helps they have a Red edge to the tail fin and the same red edge to the anal fin. Do they grow as large as the shop said?
