Best Score Ever!...Dolphin Barbs (Bangana Behri)

Last night I saw one of the LFS had Dolphin Barbs on their online stocklist for $5.98 each. So I drove over today and they looked like the real deal so I bought all 7 of them. Then the guy dropped one on the ground, it looked fine but he felt bad and gave them all to me for $4.49 a piece...man I almost felt guilty...almost lol.

I think they are correctly identified




I guess the only way to be sure is to feed them and see if they turn into this...

Wow, cool. I believe I saw one at Rare Fish a while back. Was pretty big. Wes said they are agressive fish.
Are they cold water fish?

I don't know too much about their temperature tolerance. I read they are a migratory fish from the northern mekong so I'm guessing they can't take too low of a temperature.

Yeah someday. Hopefully they grow fast. They should be able handle 70F for two months a year.
