Glowlight Pygmy Barb Species spotlight
TLDR: I’m thinking of doing an ongoing “species spotlight” on my Glowlight Pygmy Barbs, if there’s interest. They are a rare species in the hobby it appears!
As I’ve found almost zero information on them in my own research and with them being pretty rare in the hobby I figured I can share some of the knowledge I’ve gained while keeping these little fishies!
The Glowlight Pygmy Barb has very quickly become one of my favorite nano species! They stay between 1/2-3/4in from what I can tell. They are completely NON aggressive. Even the males show zero signs of sparing. They prefer to eat from the surface, and school very nicely in a group of 10 or more.
If anyone is interested in these little guys I’d love to share some more information I have learned, as there seems to be very little out there on them!
