Thank you Lucas. I have another fish in the above album that need identify. A gold colored needle-like fish that stays on the surface

And the other one looks like a golden halfbeak.

Ah thanks bro. Now I can read up on their care. Is this a rare type of rainbowfish?

Hmm, i wont say its rare, just that few people keep it because the colours are rather drab. It is easy to keep, i used to have five in a 2ft tank. They are not picky about their food.

One Of it just died... Left 4. Knew it coming when I threw in some live tubifex worms but it doesn't show interest
