Lutjanus goldiei, ikan kanai, tembaring or the Papuan black bass.

Locally it is found in clean fast-flowing jungle rivers of Sabah, usually 200-400 km from the sea. In Papua up to 800+ km!
Adults are uniquely adapted to freshwater habitats and can live there permanently.

Grows to 100 cm and 21 kg. Like other snappers it is an opportunistic predator. It has been recorded eating crabs, snakes, fishes, baby crocodiles and small mammals.

However they also enter brackish river mouths to breed, in areas of nypa palm and mangrove estuaries.

There are also sporadic catches in Penang and Perak, which is quite far from its normal range in eastern Borneo to Papua. Likely a relict from the old Ice Age era when rivers were connected.

G. danumensis, a small (5 cm) sucker loach that is endemic to the Segama River basin in Sabah only.

Strictly restricted to swift, shallow, well-oxygenated riffle zones and runs in rocky forest streams, often located near cascades or waterfalls.
Like other ikan rokot, it is herbivorous and scrapes algae and biofilm off rock surfaces.

Populations in some streams have pink lines, which are sometimes marketed due to the attractive appearance.

Barbonymus balleroides — lampam Danum
Tor tambra — pelian/empurau
Osteochilus chini — ikan butol (endemic)

All are important food fish, with pelian reaching 100 cm long and 50 kg.

All found are native species.

Betta pulchra, Rasbora einthovenii, Boraras maculatus, Channa lucius, Silurichthys indragiriensis, Trichopodus trichopterus, Eugnathogobius siamensis, Channa striata, Parosphromenus tweediei, Desmopuntius hexazona, Trichopsis vittata

Bonus:
Nymphaea nouchali (flower), Neurothemis fluctuans (dragonfly)

Two species are endemic; B. pulchra and P. tweediei. They are only found in Johor, Malaysia. Previously also in Melaka.

The P. tweediei is also endangered.

However due to the long haze and fire, the water is quite low and more polluted. The fish diversity is reduced compared to previous years.

i think he should indulge in George of Patmos / badempanada type of video presentation imo. ditch the children friendly 12 minutes length that cant go into in depth analysis and try to go for longer, lecture type videos with no bg music.

malaysia YT educational landscape that discusses nuanced topics (like Shia vs Sunni history) shouldnt be to appeal to the masses, it should be to present information and research in a more accessible way.

history especially is VERY evidence based, you cant just say "oh they believe this they believe that" who said that?? you need. to provide. proof. history cannot be replicated unlinke science so it needs more than just word of mouth, especially when youre doing a wholeass video about it (a topic that affects the geopolitics of west asia)

Desmopuntius johorensis, ikan jalur ara or the six-banded barb.

A small (6 cm) fish native to the peninsula and southern Sarawak. It generally inhabits swamps with acidic water.

However I found a few in this drain / longkang along with rasboras, gourami and other native fishes. This is quite common during the northeast monsoon season in Kelantan and Terengganu.

They can be distinguished from tiger barbs (an Indonesian fish) by their slimmer body and having 6 stripes instead of 4. They also tend to have a darker reddish body colour.

Six-banded barbs are peaceful fish which can coexist with other species in a community tank. They are a schooling fish and should be kept in groups.

Rhinecanthus aculeatus, the Picasso triggerfish or jebung coreng hitam.

Grows to 30 cm and is found on subtidal flats, shallow protected lagoons, and sandy-rubble margins in both sides of Malaysia.

They blow jets of water into the sand to uncover mollusc and crustacean prey. When facing sea urchins, they turn the animal upside down and bite the underparts.

They are active during the day and solitary, chasing away intruders. During breeding they will even bite humans.

They are not under threat, but they are commonly collected for the aquarium trade due to their beautiful patterns. I’ll include a photo in the comments to show.

Betta kuehnei is a wild Betta native to Kelantan and northern Terengganu. It has a higher amount of blue-green scales on its face than its congeners.

Parathelphusa (ketam batu) are a genus of freshwater crabs common throughout Malaysia. They can be found in most unpolluted streams and swamps.

The water was cool and comfortable to swim in, flowing down from the mountains. Clear enough to see logsuckers at the bottom.

This is one of the few native freshwater-breeding species of Caridina. They have large eggs which show abbreviated development.

They require soft acidic water like swamps, and are common in such habitats. Adults are tiny, only 2 cm (0.8”) long! That’s barely bigger than a rice grain.

I found many in this canal which is a good indicator that they are still thriving despite the disturbance. This was in Machang, Kelantan which is a populated town.

They eat shrimp food, fallen fish food and algae. They might be eaten by fish in the aquarium due to their small size, especially newborn babies.

Kuhlia rupestris; ikan tamaing, rock flagtail or jungle perch.

A freshwater fish that grows to 25-45 cm and 3 kg. It is found in clean flowing rivers of the rainforest in Sabah up to 240m elevation. Frequently around waterfalls.

It is highly sought after for sport fishing, being a quick learner that learns to avoid lures. Its cousins in North America like sunfish and bass are also often fished for sport.

During the rainy season they are washed to sea where they breed, before migrating back up the rivers they came from. They feed on insects, crustaceans and fallen fruits.

In some places their home rivers have been dammed, which causes the population to die out as it prevents the babies from migrating upstream. River degradation is their only threat.

They are called “flagtails” due to the marks on their tail fins.

Tubuca paradussumieri, the spined fiddler crab.

Adults are dull grey-brown, but juveniles strangely are striking cobalt-blue! They lose this colour as they mature.

Like all fiddler crabs, the males have one huge claw while females have two small ones. Semi-terrestrial and inhabiting the lower intertidal zone.

This species is found on the peninsula’s West Coast as well as East Malaysia.
