Can Anyone Help I.d My Little Veggie Eater

[daveysfish]

I purchased this little fish about 2 months ago, it was mixed in with neons at my LFS, I asked if i could purchase it and they sold it to me for 75 pence if i remember rightly. Its around an inch long, with a very bronze colour, has a terminal mouth and only eats my java moss and the stringy algae that grows within the moss. It will refuse to eat any normal trops food (flake, granules, b.worm, b.shrimp, wafers ect).
Reminds me of some sort of Barb but would be very greatful if any members know what.

I look forward to any replys or suggestions, many thanks Dave

No dont think, the danios dorsal is a lot further towards the tail than my little fella. his coloration is a bit like a juvenille goldfish
