|sexing=:Males are green towards the dorsal fin, females are redder. Males have black spots on the dorsal fin, also their fins grow quite long.
 
+
|tank_compatibility=:One of the most peaceful of the Barbs, but just to be safe, do not keep with slow-moving or long-finned fish such as [[Betta]]s and [[Angelfish]] as they still may be fin nipped. Keep in shoaling groups of 5 or more, more females than males if mixed sexes.
 
+
|diet=:Will accept most foods including pellet and flake as well as live/frozen food such as [[bloodworm]] and [[brine shrimp]].

+
|feeding_regime=:Feed once or twice a day.
:Males are green towards the dorsal fin, females are redder. Males have black spots on the dorsal fin, also their fins grow quite long.
+
|environment_specifics=:Fairly hardy towards most tank environments. Keep in a spacious tank with ample open swimming space as well as hiding places.
 
+
|behaviour=:One of the more peaceful Barbs that is unlikely to be aggressive towards tank mates, especially if kept in a shoal.  It should be remembered that this fish can get bigger than many community fish, and to be careful not to keep fish with a major difference in size in the same tank.
 
+
|identification=:The Rosy Barb has no barbels and has slight lateral compression. The back is copper to green-gold, the flanks are bright orange to red and metallic looking. Near the caudal peduncle is a black spot. The reddish fins may be elaborate with the anal and dorsal fins have black borders along the upper-parts. Males turn a deep, but bright red colour at spawning times.
