Jayba Posted August 10, 2012 Report Share Posted August 10, 2012 I recently aquired some of these guys. They are amazing! Last time I saw or heard of them was when I was young and my dad had some. Since then they have disappeared. Red Listed and in a very remote location squashed between India and Nepa. Graceful like a roseline shark, busy like a barb and a mouth like a large trap door. They are about half grown and already stunning. Hopefully I can get some fry from them when they are older. Little info on them, so we shall see how it goes. Here is a couple pictures, hard to photograph, like trying to take a pic of a fly that is in flight.n Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

syno321 Posted August 10, 2012 Report Share Posted August 10, 2012 Got a look at them in Jay's tank after being released from the transport bag 20 minutes earlier. Don't mean to put any pressure on you Jay, but I'm hoping you'll successfully spawn these sooner, rather than later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JORG Posted August 22, 2012 Report Share Posted August 22, 2012 (edited) They look great. Have them marked off on the Asian exporters list once we have a little tank space. Edited August 22, 2012 by JORG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayba Posted May 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2013 Just noticed BARILIUS BAKERI on Spencer Jacks list. Same fish but different markings. Like an oblivious Rosline shark on on a sugar high. They are wicked! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronChefItaly Posted September 7, 2013 Report Share Posted September 7, 2013 They are surprisingly quite peaceful for their vivid color and general appearance. Very cool fish indeed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunnyrabbit Posted September 13, 2013 Report Share Posted September 13, 2013 Very nice. Very colourful for freshwater species. Any updates or new pictures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
