I'm in a very random mood tonight, and I'm procrastinating with bedtime...so I want to start this thread.

Fish with the most common names you can think of:

I'll start:

Balantiocheilos melanopterus: Silver Shark, Bala Shark, TriColored Shark

and...

C. Trillineatus: leopard cory, false julii, 3 lined cory

Whos got another?

I can add to the BN one, they're also called bushy nose
