Fish is correct but the scientific names are old ones. Epalzeorhynchus frenatus and Labeo frenatus are synonyms of Epalzeorhynchos frenatum.

Here is a previous discussion on E. frenatum.

Oops sorry I didn't know that.

Of course you would also want to know the common name, which i believe is the "Red tailed shark"?

[doppelbanddwarf]

I think the common name red-tailed black shark would normally refer to Epalzeorhynchos bicolor which is different in that only the tail is red while the rest of the fins are black. Meanwhile Epalzeorhynchos frenatum is known by the common names redfin shark or rainbow shark.

limchongyu's correct, as this is already being mentioned in the link in post #5.
