Surely one of the many bintan-like variants that are to be found on Sumatra and in Kalimantan. I think this is the spec. Sentang which is distributed by trade quite widespread in the last two or three years. Especially Aqua – Tropica sold it in high numbers. But there might be a slight colour variation indicating a different locality than those fish came from that were traded in the last years.
Couldn’t you try to ask the trader where the fish have been caught? It would be good to know whether on Sumatra or in Kalimantan.
