What type of Barb is this?

[Snoozie]

Hi,

I bought some barbs from the lfs recently and I have a couple that I am not sure about. They look similar to tigers but are orange & white. I've attached pics...

If someone could identify them and tell me which type they are I'd really appreciate it.

Cheers

I believe that they are just a color variant of the tiger barb, kinda like the green tiger,etc.

Jason,
Thanks for that, they were sold to me as Rosy's but after investigation I realized they weren't!

I sometimes think I know more about the fish than the lfs think they do and I know nothing! lol

Cheers

The albinos are really cool..They're the biggest of all of them and probably the most sooky too!
