Comments:
This barb was discovered and scientifically described in 1865, though it has not become popular in the hobby until recently. This sudden surge in popularity has given rise to the misconception that this species was only discovered a few years ago. Because all specimens available in retail stores are imported from the wild, prices remain very   high. Despite the high cost for a shoal of this species, many hobbyists are acquiring them and finding that they make great fish for peaceful community tank
