General Comments:
The Denison Barb, also known as the Red Lined Torpedo Barb
or the Rose Line Shark, is a longer fish when compared to the other barbs. The
coloration of this fish is silver in color with a black line running the length
of its body and a red stripe across its eyes. It also has a red edge on its
dorsal fin and yellow and black accents on the end of its tail.
Unlike some of the other barbs, this is a peaceful fish
that is a welcome addition to any larger community aquarium. They should be kept
in groups in an aquarium with a tight fitting lid, as they have a tendency to
jump. In nature, they are found in fast moving streams and appreciate a high
oxygen level in aquarium water.
