The long fin cherry barb variety looks pretty good.

[@MichaelJensensAquarium]

Haven't seen that variety. I'm sure it's beautiful, but I like the originals. Cheers, Michael :0)

Those are amazing. I too sometimes take a break from having a certain type of fish. I think that it is time to get a few barbs again. 😊 Cherry barbs are definitely one of my favorites. I don't know if I could choose a single favorite barbs. 🤔😊😊

[@MichaelJensensAquarium]

Hi Jeff. Thanks. You are right It's not easy to choose. So many fish ... and so little time :0) Cheers, Michael :0)

[@jamesholbrook7785]

Love the way you present fish while narrating. In your opinion, how cool of water can Cherry Barbs live in?

[@MichaelJensensAquarium]

Thanks for your feedback, James. All my tanks run without heaters, and the temperature drops to around 20 C (68 F) during the night and go to 24 C (75 F) during the day. The Cherry Barbs do fine with that. Originally they hail from shaded rainforrest streams in Sri Lanka, that doesn't get much heating from the sun. Cheers, Michael :0)

[@jonisolis9645]

You have a nice calming voice and I love cherry barbs but don't have any currently. I need to get them once again.

[@MichaelJensensAquarium]

Thanks Joni. The Cherry Barbs are always easy to find, so good luck with them. Cheers, Michael :0)

[@sergioleite3072]

Excelent. Thanks.

[@MichaelJensensAquarium]

You're welcome! Cheers, Michael :0)

[@bluebowser3121]

I do like them, but I worry about anything that is a barb being a fin nipper.

[@MichaelJensensAquarium]

Have never seen them nip anything else than their food, but who knows. Cheers, Michael :0)

[@aquapasja947]

Will they eat shrimps when they grow up?

[@MichaelJensensAquarium]

They are not hard on shrimps, but they can eat shrimp babies. Cheers, Michael :0)
