Bring color, energy, and elegance to your freshwater setup with the Roseline Denison Barb, also known as the Denison Barb or Red-Line Torpedo Barb. At 2β3 inches, these juveniles are just starting to show off their signature horizontal red stripe, sleek silver body, and yellow-tipped finsβa look that becomes even more stunning as they mature.
