Each fish has the species' signature black spot near the tail and dark-tipped fins that make the red pop even more. The species is native to rivers, streams, and lakes of northern India, Nepal, Bangladesh, and Pakistan.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"font-family:Georgia,serif;font-size:1.05em;line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:16px;color:#2c2c2c;\"\u003eKeep Super Red Rosy Barbs in a group of 8 or more. In a proper group they are peaceful, busy schooling fish, and the males show their strongest color as they display and compete for the females. Females are larger, rounder, and more olive-gold, with only a blush of pink. Kept singly or in very small groups, barbs can become nervous or nippy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"font-family:Georgia,serif;font-size:1.05em;line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:24px;color:#2c2c2c;\"\u003eThis is a hardy, adaptable fish that does well in a wide range of water conditions and prefers slightly cooler temperatures than most tropicals, making it a good choice for unheated or room-temperature planted tanks. Good tankmates include other active barbs, danios, larger tetras, rainbowfish, livebearers, loaches, and Corydoras. Avoid slow, long-finned fish such as bettas and fancy guppies. Rosy barbs may nibble very soft, fine-leaved plants, so pair them with sturdier species like Anubias, Java fern, Cryptocoryne, and Vallisneria.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"font-family:Georgia,serif;font-size:1.05em;line-height:1.8;margin-bottom:16px;background-color:#e0f0f8;border:1px solid #b0d0e8;padding:14px 18px;color:#0a2a3a;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeeding \u0026amp; Care Tip:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rosy barbs are easy-to-feed omnivores.
