I included the first pic to show the barbels.

Sorry can't help you on this one.. If I had to hazard a guess I would say it was a barb (though I've never kept a barb so what do I know :confused: lol) If I had to make up a name for it I would call it a checkered barb... but don't quote me on that lol
It's a pretty fish whatever it is :thumb: Hopefully someone else will come along that can ID it

Might be easier if you could give a bit of a size description or something in all these posts

Not a Checker Barb. About 3 inches long.

Shaped like my rasbora's but those whiskers make it look like something from the loach family........odd looking fish

I was thinking rasbora at first too because i looked at the second picture first. The whiskers totally threw me off.

With the barbels it is most likely some type of cory. I have seen similar markings, but they weren't as slim bodied. Try those pics on planetcatfish.com....if it is a cory they will be able to ID for you!

sterba's cory possibly?

Weird!
The back end looks like my tetra and the whiskers look like cory???

Genetic mess up or trick photography :-)

Barbs have small barbels, and that is defnitely not a cory of any kind. It is some sort of barb and I am pretty sure I have seen it before, just can't remember where or what they called it.

[henkychif]

Honest, folks, not trick photos!

the second pic looks kind of like some sort of headstander
