I came home from the fish shop yesterday with the shoal of 6 pentazona barbs I had wanted for months they are so coool, I love them already, they are the same size as my neon tetras at the moment and they make the tank look so much more active!
Does anyone know much about these fish? I did alot of research on them, much of which mentions their excellent colouring and that they are good community fish unlike their lookly likey relatives the tiger barbs, but it also mentions that they are hard to get to take flake foods, which is fine plenty of brine shrimp here, but they ignored that this am and just waited for the flake food to float down to their area before they ate, if they are going to continue this I will have a fairly polluted tank before the month is out!!
