Rosy Barb

Rosy Barbs are vibrant, active freshwater fish prized for their striking coloration and energetic behavior. Males display brilliant red and pink hues, especially during breeding season, while females show more subdued tones. These hardy schooling fish thrive in groups of six or more and prefer well-planted tanks with moderate water flow. They reach 4-6 inches in length and do best in temperatures between 64-72°F with neutral to slightly acidic water. Rosy Barbs are opportunistic feeders that accept quality flake food, pellets, and live foods. Their playful nature and hardiness make them excellent choices for both beginner and experienced aquarists looking to add dynamic movement and color to their aquatic environment.
