Odessa Barb

Pethia padamya


A well know cyprinid from Myanmar, Odessa Barbs are similar to tiger barbs in their personalities and behaviours; displaying inquisitive, playful and energetic tendencies in community tanks.

Growing to approximately 1.5 inches, they display a bright red colouration against their metallic body; with patterned yellow fins.

If keeping these as part of a community, aim to house in a group of 8 or more; this will direct any fin nipping behaviours inwardly and distract attention from tank mates. They are unfussy eaters, accepting flake dried, pellets, live and/or frozen foods, a balance of which will help to maintain their health and colouration.
