Hmmm...haven't heard of yellow barbs - however, I will tell you that while fish generally school with their own species, there are exceptions - I've seen people post that a single fish will school with a larger group of fish different than themselves.

Cherry barbs are Puntius titteya. Only kind of cherry barb there is. The females are more yellow/brownish than the males but that's the only yellow barb in that group.
