What are these fish?.jpgHi! I purchased a school of five fish a few days ago. Unfortunately I don't know what they are! They were labelled as 'feeder fish' in the shop. They school well, are hearty eaters, are about an inch long and have an iridescent line down their spine starting at the head. Any ideas?
 
I would have thought they might be some type of barb since they are often sold as "feeder" fish possibly even something like a gold barb. The lack of colour could be down to their age, eg Juvi and also stress.
 
Gold Barb was my first thought but I thought I saw something else. A quick search pretty much verifies that it is a Gold Barb.
 
Thank you everyone! They're thriving at the moment. If they end up growing into a school of gold barbs, it's the perfect excuse to whip out the four foot tank!
