{"product_id":"6-pack-odessa-barb-live-freshwater-tropical-aquarium-fish-puntius-padamya","title":"6-Pack Odessa Barb Live Freshwater Tropical Aquarium Fish Puntius Padamya","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Odessa Barb (Pethia padamya) is a beautiful, active freshwater fish known for its vibrant coloration, energetic swimming behavior, and peaceful schooling nature. Males develop a striking red stripe along their bodies, complemented by shimmering silver, gold, and dark markings, while females typically display softer coloration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOdessa Barbs are excellent additions to planted freshwater aquariums and look especially impressive when kept in groups. Their active swimming and attractive colors create a lively, eye-catching display.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese fish thrive in well-maintained aquariums with good filtration, moderate water movement, and plenty of swimming space. Live plants, driftwood, and natural decorations provide an attractive environment while offering areas for shelter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs omnivores, Odessa Barbs readily accept high-quality tropical flakes, small pellets, frozen foods, and occasional vegetable-based foods. A varied diet helps support healthy growth and vibrant coloration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOdessa Barbs are generally peaceful schooling fish and are best maintained in groups of six or more. They can coexist with other active, similarly sized community fish. Avoid keeping them with very timid species or slow-moving fish with long, delicate fins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach fish is carefully selected and professionally packed with oxygen and insulation for safe transportation. Photos are representative; coloration, patterns, and sex may vary naturally. Males may develop more intense red coloration as they mature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou will receive 6 healthy Odessa Barbs (Pethia padamya).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-end=\"525\" data-start=\"472\"\u003e🚚\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong data-end=\"525\" data-start=\"479\"\u003eShipping Policy – Lightning Aquatics World\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4 data-end=\"567\" data-start=\"527\"\u003e1. 📦\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong data-end=\"565\" data-start=\"538\"\u003ePreparation \u0026amp; Packaging\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"649\" data-start=\"570\"\u003eEach fish is carefully hand-selected and packed in oxygenated, treated water.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"760\" data-start=\"652\"\u003eSecurely sealed bags are placed inside insulated thermal boxes to maintain stable conditions during transit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4 data-end=\"795\" data-start=\"762\"\u003e2. 🚛\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong data-end=\"793\" data-start=\"773\"\u003eShipping Options\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"862\" data-start=\"798\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-end=\"827\" data-start=\"798\"\u003eStandard Shipping (2-Day)\u003c\/strong\u003e: Available\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong data-end=\"859\" data-start=\"839\"\u003eMonday–Wednesday\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1014\" data-start=\"865\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-end=\"896\" data-start=\"865\"\u003eExpress Shipping (Next Day)\u003c\/strong\u003e: Available\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong data-end=\"927\" data-start=\"908\"\u003eMonday–Thursday\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003efor an extra fee.\u003cbr data-end=\"948\" data-start=\"945\"\u003e\u003cem data-end=\"1014\" data-start=\"950\"\u003eWe recommend Express for extreme weather or sensitive species.\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4 data-end=\"1051\" data-start=\"1016\"\u003e3. 🗓️\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong data-end=\"1049\" data-start=\"1028\"\u003eShipping Schedule\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1110\" data-start=\"1054\"\u003eOrders placed\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong data-end=\"1091\" data-start=\"1068\"\u003eMonday to Wednesday\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ship same week.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1202\" data-start=\"1113\"\u003eOrders placed\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong data-end=\"1145\" data-start=\"1127\"\u003eafter Thursday\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ship the following\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong data-end=\"1176\" data-start=\"1166\"\u003eMonday\u003c\/strong\u003e, to avoid weekend delays.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4 data-end=\"1242\" data-start=\"1204\"\u003e4. 📬\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong data-end=\"1240\" data-start=\"1215\"\u003eCustomer Availability\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1405\" data-start=\"1243\"\u003ePlease ensure someone is available to receive the package at the time of delivery.
