Went for swimming nearby and caught some fish. Can anyone identify this fish? Is it Flying Fox, Epalzeorhynchus kalopterus or Garra taeniata? I am from Kuching, Sarawak, Borneo.

looks to me like Siamese algae eater - Crossocheilus siamensis, very similar to the flying fox, but this species has facial 'wiskers'. try googling that name and see if the results match? Terry http://www.fishtankforum.co.uk

An SAE has a black stripe that continues through the tail. The pics I believe are of the false siemensis which could be Epalzeorhynchus sp but not a flying fox(Kalopterus) http://www.plecoplanet.com
