I have 2 of these silver fish that were sold to me as 'panda barbs', but I have not been able to find any info on the internet. They kind of look like rosy barbs, but they are silver and the black dot is closer to the base of the tail with a little shimmer of pink just infront of it. The one I have, also has red lips...I've tried to attach a photo...in the background is a longfin rosybarb for comparison. Anybody ever hear of a panda barb, or are they known as something else

looks like a tetra to me... kinda plain looking.. like those lamp eye or red eye tetra.
 
That is awesome!!!! Yeah, I finally know what they are, and that the red lip is normal...lol...only my one has it...possibly a gender difference????...thanks a bunch
