Hypsibarbus....? (ID please)

[Joao M]

Hi,

This guy was at the LFS for more than a month, and i took him home.
Looks like a Hypsibarbus, possibly a H. pierrei.

he is 10"long for reference

p.s.: doesn´t look like a lemon fin barb (H. wetmorei). The fins are very reddish and not lemon.

thanks

To me it looks like an overgrown, escaped, feeder......
