Long-Fin Cherry Barb (Puntius titteya) - Male

Same Puntius titteya genetics and same mood-linked cherry-red flush in mature males as the standard cherry barb, just carried on a long-fin line with trailing dorsal and caudal fins well past normal proportions. It's one of the calmest barbs available regardless of finnage, no real nipping tendency to manage even in a mixed community. Easy care and a great beginner schooler with a bit of extra visual flair.

Care level: Easy · Temperament: Peaceful, shoaling · Max size: ~2" · Min tank: 15 gal · Diet: Omnivore, flake/pellet
