Red Tiger Barbs???

[Drew95]

Hi everyone.

I'm sure this has been asked in the past but I was unable to find much by searching. Are red tiger barbs common and easy to find? I am pretty new to the hobby and really enjoy my 3 regular and 3 green tiger barbs and would like to add 3 or so more red ones if I can find them. Thanks in advance.

Are they dyed? Maybe you're thining of black ruby barbs like the one in my avatar.

They aren't dyed but I guess they are just a morph of the original.

Here is a picture....

Someone on here had a blue tiger that was a dyed albino.
