Identification Can reach a total length of 25 cm but is more common at half that size.31-34 lateral scales. Red caudal fin with a black marginal stripe along each lobe. A black spot at the base of the caudal fin. Young individuals may exhibit black lateral lines along the body. Genetic variability is well documented, the species can vary in appearance somewhat depending on locality with a number of variants recognized, some of which exhibit a greater degree or lack of red color pattern in the finnage. Habitat Can be found in rivers, but mainly in smaller streams, canals and on floodplains(during breeding season). Occasionally found in impoundments, but usually stays in the flowing streams leading to the impoundment. During breeding season, adults will move into seasonally inundated ar ...

Fish Of Southeast Asia
Fish are aquatic, craniate, gill-bearing animals that lack limbs with digits. Included in this definition are the living hagfish, lampreys, and cartilaginous and bony fish as well as various extinct related groups. Approximately 95% of living fish species are ray-finned fish, belonging to the class Actinopterygii, with around 99% of those being teleosts. The earliest organisms that can be classified as fish were soft-bodied chordates that first appeared during the Cambrian period. Although they lacked a true spine, they possessed notochords which allowed them to be more agile than their invertebrate counterparts. Fish would continue to evolve through the Paleozoic era, diversifying into a wide variety of forms. Many fish of the Paleozoic developed external armor that protected them from predators. The first fish with jaws appeared in the Silurian period, after which many (such as sharks) became formidable marine predators rather than just the prey of arthropods. Most fis ...
