Another topic promtped me to finally get the Loach Forum's opinion on what this fish is. For the longest time I've thought it to be a
Sinibotia Longiventralis but I'm not so sure anymore. I apologize in advace for the crummy pictures, but I hope they might help in identifying this fish?
I wish they were clearer...

A old Sinibotia pulchra.

Aha, it looks like I was wrong all along. Well, glad to finally know what it is. Thanks
He is a pretty old little guy, I'm not sure how long they live for, but I've had him for years. Some other fish nipped his poor tail fin, so it healed into sort of a funny shape. But he's healthy as far as I can tell.

The pictures don't really bring out his color.
