By chance does anyone know of a nice looking barb that stays around 5-9" that also is not too common? By common, I mean tinfoil barb.
 
Spanner/T barbs (Puntius laterastriga) or filamentosa barbs (Barbus filamentosa)are nice. Neither get too large, just around 6" or a little larger.
 
Roseline sharks are soo expensive still. Cant get any around here under 30 a piece. But i do agree that they dont get too large, and i have seen them make a planted tank extraordinary.

yeah petsmart is supposed to get some for like $40 haven't seen any yet
 
Ive seen them at my local Petsmart in Casa Grande Arizona, expensive yes, but would not be big enough for the fish listed below I am going to get. The Oscar at 15 iches someday would eat them if ever caught.
