Barbus
Barbus is a genus of ray-finned fish in the family Cyprinidae. The type species of Barbus is the common barbel, first described as Cyprinus barbus and now named Barbus barbus. Barbus is the namesake genus of the subfamily Barbinae, but given their relationships, that taxon is better included in the Cyprininae at least for the largest part (including the type species of Barbus).
Description and uses
Their common names – barbs and barbels – refer to the fact that most members of the genera have a pair of barbels on their mouths, which they can use to search for food at the bottom of the water.
Barbels are often fished for food; in some locations they are of commercial significance. The roe of barbels is poisonous, however. The large Barbus barbs are also often eaten in their native range.
At Shanhûr in Egypt, remains of a jar from the sixth to seventh century AD were unearthed which contained a bunch of fish bones. The fishes were apparently pickled to produce a dish similar to the modern fesikh (or faseekh). Among the ancient remains, barbs (perhaps Barbus perince) were plentiful, and Egyptians in our time still consider B. perince good for preparing fesikh, as it is traditionally done for the Sham el-Nessim (spring festival) celebrations.

With You
by: Barrio BoyzzSabras de mi amor por ti
Y sabras que por ti llore
Y sabras que por ti vivire
Did you ever feel like you were alone in this world,
And how you would really love to scream and shout
All of the pain you hold.
So many times i've held this feeling within,
In confusion everyday
I'd like to find me someone special like you,
Girl it's with you i long to be...
Chorus
It's with you, i'd like to be
With you and only with you,
Your love is all that i need...
It's with you, I'd like to be
With you and only with you
Together just you and me...
Many times when i was all alone and so afraid
Thinkin' i wouldnever find someone to love
What was i left to do...
So many times i've held this feeling within
In confusion everyday
I'd like to find me someone special like you,
Cause it's with you i long to be...
It's with you, i'd like to be
With you and only with you,
Your love is all that i need...
It's with you, I'd like to be
With you and only with you
Together just you and me...
Many problems in this world today,
Can't you see no one cares to lend a helping hand,
Tell me what's going on.
Many tiems i've held this feeling within,
In confusion everyday
I'd like to find someone special like you,
Girl it's with you i long to be...
It's with you, i'd like to be
With you and only with you,
Your love is all that i need...
It's with you, I'd like to be
With you and only with you
Together just you and me...
Together just you and me...
