What's this fish called? (barb)

[JamesBenjamin]

I have 2 tiger barbs, and 2 barbs that look the same, except that their bodies are green, and their fins are blue/black. (solid, no tiger stripes) The store had them marked 'green barbs' but of course that's not showing up anywhere. Anyone know the 'real' name of these fish? I'd like to read up a bit for fun.

Thanks!

i noted that the green one behaves exactly like the tiger barbs.

however there's the albino type (orange) that does seem to be that active. i usually call them orange types 'decoration' instead.
