No its not a denison barb (roseline barb).

I never saw these at any store before.

I still think its a denison barb, maybe if there was a better picture of it I could be sure as to whether or not I am right, but from the looks of it I can guarantee you it is a denison barb. There is no freshwater shark with the looks of that fish.
