I know that the scomb species tend to die earlier than the rest ! Hopefully mine won't die

You can tell by fins head body and color you have a scomb if you want more info or don't trust my I.D. go to the other characins section of the forum go to the stickies and look at the one for payara I.D and that should answer you questions and concerns

The dead giveaways are those two black spots that are seen a bit behind the eye and fin,also,scombs have a smaller tail than the armatus and tatauia.
