    After a day of outing to Qian Hu, my son bought back this fellow (pardon the lousy picture).

    Does anyone know its name?

    After two weeks of quarantine, I stop short of putting it into my 2ft planted tank which has cherry shrimps, neon tetra and endler as I don't want to take risk until I know its name and behaviour.
    Thanks.

    Should be Tiger Barb. Recommended to be kept in a small school of about 5 or so. But not with small shrimps or endlers which I am sure would be their food.

    See pic by sign in AQ gallery.

    Happy keeping this guy, like what bro juggler mention, try to keep in a group of 5 or so, you will enjoy seeing them chasing each others.
