Rare Bangana Behri

[BenZino]

Here is one of my new pick up. Its a bangana behri (Dolphin Barb). This guy is about 4" and pretty active. There's not much known on these guys in captivity but never the less an interesting fish. Once it grow to a certain size, it start to grow a nuptial hump on its head like a flowerhorn, pretty amazing.
