Roloff's Pygmy Barb (Oreichthys parvus) is a diminutive and peaceful freshwater fish, ideal for nano or small community aquariums. Originating from Southeast Asia, these colourful barbs exhibit subtle red and orange hues, particularly in mature males.

They are schooling fish, thriving best in groups of six or more, where their natural behaviours can be observed. Provide a well-planted environment with stable water parameters to encourage their best health and vibrant appearance. An omnivorous diet of small, high-quality flakes, pellets, and live or frozen foods is recommended.

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

Yes, you can order fish along with dry goods. However, if the dry goods are heavy or bulky, it may be more cost-effective to place two separate orders. In that case, you could ship the dry goods using a slower, more affordable shipping option.

If your order has not shipped yet, you can email us your correct shipping address, and we will update it for you.

On weekdays, if we receive your order before 2 p.m., it will be shipped out the same day. Dry goods are shipped from Monday to Friday. Orders that include livestock are only shipped from Monday to Thursday to avoid transit over the weekend.

At checkout, you can leave your request in the comments box.

Our locker boxes are located in the foyer of our store at 230 Hanlon Creek Blvd, Unit 107, Guelph. The room is accessible from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m.
