| Description |
This auction is for (4) Adult Tank Bred and Raised Cyprinidae - barbus conchonius (Rosy Barbs), (3) Females and (1) Male, with Live Arrival Guaranteed (L.A.G.) and Free Shipping. The winning bidder will also be sent (2) bonus cory catfish. Details of the L.A.G. can be found in the shipping details. Discounts are offered for multiple purchases.
These tough and generally peaceable shoaling fish are born and raised in neutral pH water (7.0-7.2), with KH (3) and GH (5). While they will tolerate temperatures as low as 64 F. and as high as 78 F. they're more comfortable in the water under 75 F. They are not at all fussy about food and pH (6.5 - 8.0) and will thrive in just about any type of tank setting. They prefer a planted tank with a soft sand bed and plenty of room to swim around. They are usually good community tank fish and can even be kept with gold fish. They have however, like gold fish, been known to snack on small snails and delicate plants.
For people interested in breeding this is an ideal starter species. Mature adults typically respond to live foods and spawn freely among fine leaved plants. The fry are very hardy and extremely easy to rear so long as they are provided with plenty of cover to hide from larger tank mates until they begin to mature.
In the wild this variety is found throughout northern India , and grow to about 2" - 2 1/2" in length. In captivity they can grow as large as 3", but are usually more in the 2 1/2" range. Spawning groups are best kept with a predominance of females to males as the males have a tendency to worry the females rather incessantly.
