Golden sparkles on Rosy Barb back

[StripySnailGirl04]

Hello!
As you might already know, I have 2 (I know they need shoes of 6+) Rosy Barbs, 1 male and 1 female. Well, on both of them, on their spine area there are golden- green sparkles /sheen. I cannot supply photos because my phone would not capture this. None of the other fishes have this and the barbs have had this for a few months. Should I be worried?

As long as water params are fine, the fish act and eat well, I wouldn't fret over it.

I think similar but on mine, the sparkles are in the spine area and very fine. You can only see them in good light conditions.

I think they are in great (breeding)condition.

Oh, OK. The male used to be very pale but now he is extremely rosy and the female probably has eggs. Ignore the wire in the pic.

Dont think you have anything to worry about. Sounds normal for Rosy barbs
