I've spent a good few hours looking for fry images or photos and not doing to well at finding anything online.

Found this barbel image online but looking for smalles examples

That is a very young fish. My guess would be no more than a couple of inches long. I read somewhere about them initially being blotchy when young. Certainly by 6 inches the colouring has changed to be more like an adult.

My guess is they are baby barbel, from Calverton Fish farm!

I had in mind something that was swimming towards an egg, rather than from it.
