Hi,
I was wondering if this is a Loach or not. It is 6 years old.

Cheers,
mack

Just so you know the fellow I am helping, in trying to get this fish's ID says he dose not think it is a Garra.

Here is another pic.

Cheers for the help.

That is a better picture Mack, from the first pic I would have agreed with Garra but looking at the second pic I would say Labeo maybe, I have seen one with the orangy fins and that black mark on the caudal and I think it was labeo rohita

Any Crossocheilus kind? Somebody similar to Latius?

Can't see the photos well but....
Are we sure it's not one of the North American suckers? That second photo looks pretty familiar.

Looks a bit like a Cumuca barb?
