do you have a scientific name or picture for the fish?

 

[The-Wolf]

in all probability the fish in question is not a barb at all but most likely
Rasbora einthoveni

 

[jacko9901]

scientific name: Barbus barioloides

 

[The-Wolf]

scientific name: Barbus barioloides

no such thing.
if you meant Barbus barilioides then that is a junior synonym of
Barbus fasciolatus and I can see why a shop may call them blue strip barbs
