Re: does anyone know what this is

I think it is a Roach/Bream Hybrid but I have not seen too many so I would wait for some other answers!

You were right first time!

Not all roach have bright orange fins - if you look closely, this one has FAINT orange fins.

It is definitely not a bream or roach/bream hybrid. Both of those have much longer anal fins
