I have no idea, but the fins are stunning. Looks like a yellow tailed chaleus?

Chalceus came to mind when I saw it too. Couldn't say though. I've only seen pink tailed.

yellow tail chalceus i think...

 

[chonhzilla]

wow! I like the "yellowness"

 

[perfect_prefect]

there were about 10 of them that i saw in with all of these guys....

 

[perfect_prefect]

only problem is the information ive found on the pink tails is they only get to 10 inches and these guys were about 2'

hmmm don't think its a chalceus looks like some kind of barb

That looks like a nice tank but in one of the close up shots it appears to be leaking.

i dont think barbs have an adipose fin.
