Flaming Barbatus

This little showstopper's a freshwater aquarium favorite - its striking appearance and big personality make it hard to ignore. Plus, it's a low-maintenance fish that won't take up too much space, making it a popular choice among aquarium hobbyists. With proper care, the Flaming Barbatus can thrive in a well-maintained tank with plenty of hiding places and a varied diet. I've seen these guys do well in tanks as small as 20 gallons, but they'll really shine in a 30-gallon or bigger.
