and a carp

Okay, i looked it up and it's a green tiger barb. They are a captive bred variety. You have them like yours and then there are others which are completely green.

Good find!

Jeez, that's a big carp! 8O

I've recently purchased some tiger barbs. The lfs also had the green variety.
Does anyone know if the green ones are simply a color morph & will they school with the regular tiger barbs?

BTW, How much did that carp weigh? a buddy of mine fishes for carp as well. His biggest is 16 kgs (i've seen the picture, it's huge!). I don't know how much pound that is, but it sure was big.

I have green, albino, and "regular" tiger barbs, and they all school nicely. Also my largest regular tiger barb has a green tint to his black stripes. So I think what your seeing is completly normal.
