those look like the green tiger barbs i see around here.
 
They are green tiger barbs, a far cry from the tin foil or red tail tinfoil that you see in a lot of monster tanks, those are monster snacks whe they are full grown. :naughty:

hope you got six or more of em cuz they will shred fins on anything that moves if they are not in a decen size shoal.

well i really never messed with barbs so i said tinfoil barbs. the only reason i got them was for dithers for my large sa/ca cichlids. so they may become food anyway. hopefully there fast enough:)
 
They are definately fast enough, my oscar couldnt catch em... They actually made confetti out of one of my O's tails, wound up givin em away.
