Gold Roseline Dension Barb
Gold Roseline Denison Barbs are large schooling fish that are a great choice for freshwater community aquariums. One distinguishing feature of this family is the lack of an adipose fin (a boneless fin found between the dorsal fin and the caudal or tail fin). A streamlined fish reaching at least five inches in captivity, the Denison barb is easily recognized with its shiny silver body. Being a schooling fish, no fewer than six should be considered when planning an aquarium or purchase. Decor can vary, and they have been kept in a variety of settings including planted aquariums, but a natural habitat would likely consist of some stones and larger rocks for them to rest behind. Denison barbs are not difficult to feed and mostly eat small invertebrates and some plant matter in the wild. A balanced and varied diet between live or frozen small meaty foods (bloodworms, blackworms, brine shrimp etc.) along with some quality pellets or flakes will lead to your fish being their healthiest.
