Anyone out there working  these fish? I would love to see picture and hear all about it.

This is my 3rd generation with me, still pretty young about 6 month. 

I want them to hold their fin out wider, they don't have to be any longer than this. After I get their body conformation right, I'll start working on their color.

I've had rosy barbs in my pond for almost 3 years now. I don't know if it's the sun or just with age but mine have become super pink on their sides. One of my favorite fish!

Sweet, the one keep out side are pretty red also, the weather just got to the low 30 and I had to bring them back inside

@Cory what do you think? Too much? I dont see anyone else is working with them nor anyone with a passion for them. Hopefully all your new video with get more ppls into them.

Its a shame he dont have the black dot, not sure if you notice,but it really bother me..lol

He haven't seen sunlight yet so I believe he can still get redder at 11 month old hes not bad

I love my Rosy Barbs.  It looks like all six of mine turned out to be males, so I won’t see much in the way of breeding behavior—but they sure are interesting and fun to have in my 55.  They are always playing tag or something.  The other day I had to take a close look because I thought one had bashed his mouth on the glass or something. It looked like he had a white lump on his mouth.

But he had a small snail shell he was carrying around.  Was it stuck?  Nope!  He dropped it and another one grabbed it and swam away with the prize.  The one that dropped it chased after.

I know, maybe that’s dumb, but I enjoy seeing things like that!🥴

Couldn’t get a video but here is a picture of some of the guys:
