Fish of the month: Odessa Barb

Odessa Barb This October, we want to honor an often forgotten fish, the Odessa Barb. These fish are easy to keep, and get along well with a variety of fish, including other barbs, tetras, and ram cichlids. Odessa barbs have sexual dimorphism, with the females being mostly silver in color. However, the males have a brilliant red streak that runs the length of their body. These lovely fish do best in schools of five or more, and can even be bred in the home aquarium.
