Filaments or mascara barbs could work. They get pretty large.
Reasonable price for full size denison barbs?

I'd call that awesome pricing and I'd probably buy a handful if I saw them that cheap.
Last time I saw them for sale here I think they were $120NZD or $75 USD each for smallish ones. I remember it because I thought, "Holy crap they went up in price!" That must have been 5-10 years ago.
From what I can tell they're still legal to Import, but it has been made more difficult and risky due to being categorized as a high disease risk. Importers don't like to spend thousands importing fish and then have the entire shipment destroyed because one is diseased.
Price seems a bit high to me but not outrageous. For whatever reason, this is an expensive fish. Supply/demand I suppose.
It's a 6ft 225...currently have one young O, one large BP and one severum. Also 2 syno catfish. All of them are still growing.
It's odd but most of the giant danios I see are snack size...I don't consider them rare so its strange to not run across some larger ones. But I like them.
