Orange Redtail Tinfoil Barbs???

[Kolossus]

Does anyone have any info on these? I can't find any info on them anywhere. My LFS has a couple, was thinking about grabbing them...don't think I've seen them before. They look like regular redtail tinfoils except instead of their body being silver, they're orange. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

they are a gold colour morph. care and size is the same.
I have never seen any grown up, just small ones.

but I am sure they would look nice.

Thanks for all the input you all.


I've seen the goldens and viewed the posted video...The ones at the LFS I am referring to are good and ORANGE, not yellow, not gold. Its a deeper orange than I've seen on any tinfoil. Its similar to the orange that's on a tiger barb. That's why I was wondering was it a common variant. I should've taken a picture. I wonder if someone tried to dye them...its that orange!

they could be dyed. they have dyed tinfoils. my LFS has had a tank of all different colours just like the dyed tetras and glass fish...
