ask for the scientific name. Siamensis is the true siamese algae eater. I have two in my tanks. The difference between them and the flying fox are that the siamensis black line goes all the way through the body of the fish and ends in the V point of the tail. Flying fox's stripe ends just before the tail.
ok they have two at the store.and theirstripe lightly pass the end of the tail into th fin where the stipe turns into a diamond shape
Plenty of discussion here about distinguishing between a true SAE and a flying fox.
