What is this fish?

[Aqua Sanctuary]

It was sold to me as a "rainbow". I have concluded that is incorrect.

Anyone have any insight?
Another thought was a silver orfe?
Let me know!!


Clearly not the tinfoil barb or the JD. The long one. what is it ?!?!

Maybe a danio?

I forgot to say he is approx 6.5 inches long and in person has a silver pearl pinkish color.

Way too big to be a danio unless it's a GIANT giant danio.

Rainbow? as in trout or rainbowfish? I don't know much about rainbow fish but I agree that it's not a rainbow trout b/c there's no adipose fin.

I think I recognize it from an Eyewittness book...Cyprinid called a Gudgeon. Not the Goby, Cyprinid. Or maybe Tench? Flathead Chub?
