Hi all

can anyone identify this fish please. I've been told it's a siamese flying fox, but from what I can gather going through the forums they tend to get mislabelled.

going by the black stripe entering the caudial (tail) fin
yes it is a Crossocheilus siamensis SAE

just to be certain look at your fish and determine if the following applys
All the fins are transparent or slightly milky without any yellow or reddish sheen.
The black band goes from nose to the fork of the tail and its edges are zig-zagged.
the body should be grayish or silvery-brown, every scale has a dark edge, which from the top make it look reticular (pertaining to or resembling a net)
