BEHOLD THE BRIGHT RED BARB!

A forever home for the hobby’s most underappreciated cyprinid.

This month we give humble cherry barbs a ‘This Is Your Life’ moment, thrusting them back under the spotlight they so deserve. There’s a look at how to breed, how to get the most from their colours, and even a step-by-step guide to setting up a pseudo-biotope.

What’s in the October issue of PFK:

• IN A BARBY WORLD: Setting up a forever home for the reddest fish in the hobby.
• FINDING CORYDORAS LATUS: Could a fish caught in a 2012 expedition be the real deal?
• STARRY NIGHTS: While Madagascar isn’t our usual ‘go to’ for cichlids, there’s one species that’s well worth a look.
• GET AHEAD WITH A FISH CAREER: An ichthyologist in training looks at the variety of fishkeeping jobs available.
• MAXIMISING YOUR MACROPODUS: Expert breeder Gabor Horvath turns his attention to the black paradise fish.
