- I have never seen a "Golden" variety but I have seen and kept the "Pink"
- variety. I don't know if the "Pink" Tinfoil Barbs were a different species
- but I do know that the body shape and behavior patterns were the same as
- a generic Tinfoil Barb. I don't think the coloration was artificial as I
- had 4 of them from the time they were 1.5" until they were around 6".
