Hey everyone! I just wanna tell y'all about a really awesome fish that I've come to love!
Dun dun dun....the clown barb! Puntius everetti
Also known as Everett's barb (which is super awesome since that's my last name!):D
Active, schooling barb that is colored much like tiger barbs. Instead of striped clown barbs more so have spots! They also have the brightest iridescent shine under the right light. Gold and green colors shine off their peachy color.
Oddly they are shaped much like goldfish and they have big barbels that hang from their lips like koi. They do not look like tiger barbs in the sense of shape. They also grow to massive size of 6 inches! That's big for barbs in my opinion.
They are very compatible with most fish that tiger barbs are compatible with. However, keep in mind, they can grow large! So little tetras and cherry barbs might be eaten. As far as I have seen they do not bother plants.
So seriously everyone if you're up for something cool and different....check out clown barbs! I have not found them available online, I just get them though my local fish store. The owner orders them for me. I have three so far, I think i might get more though if I have room.
Ttyl!
