The Filament Barb, also known as Puntius filamentosus, is a stunning and elegant freshwater fish known for its long filament-like extensions on the dorsal and caudal fins—especially in males. Native to the cool streams of India and Sri Lanka, these barbs are active, peaceful, and best kept in groups where their natural schooling behavior and bright coloration shine. Please note: Photos are for reference only. You will receive a similar, healthy specimen; color and fin development may vary based on age and sex. 🌿
The Filament Barb is a showstopper in planted or river-style aquariums. When kept in groups, they school gracefully and display subtle hues of red, gold, and green, enhanced under quality lighting. Males become especially striking as they mature, developing long, flowing extensions from their fins. 🌈

Most fish you receive will not look exactly like the photos on our website upon unboxing. Fish can change in appearance due to mood, age, gender, and social status. It’s completely normal for fish to lose color during shipping, often appearing pale or faded upon arrival.
The pictures on our website serve as examples only and may showcase fully mature, brightly colored fish or juveniles that have not yet developed their adult coloration. Some species also have significant differences between males and females, with females often displaying less vibrant colors.
We strongly encourage you to research the species before ordering to better understand how their appearance may change as they mature. If you have any questions about how a specific fish may look, feel free to review the provided species information or contact us directly for further clarification.
