Id Please

[raptorrex]

can you id this fish? i have two one green, see picture, with a red/orange snowt and red trimmed fins, the other a deep royal blue, sorry about the pic cos they are swift little critters, best i could do so far

they are both tiger barbs of different colours.
they will become very fin nippy and aggressive if kept in a pair.
IME the more the better for TBs, I would say 8 as a min but others say 5

yeah the body shape is spot on for barbs. probably just a different colour morph to usual, or something like juvi colours if they're young (no idea what barb juvi's look like but just an idea) ???
