Thanks Jools
My bad, I found this on this site:
Brochis multiradiatus
Differs from other species of Brochis by its hog-like snout and from B. splendens by a larger number of dorsal fin rays. The dorsal fin can have 15-18 soft rays; although B. multiradiatus usually has 17.
Brochis splendens
Has fewer rays (10 - 12) in its dorsal fin than the other two species of Brochis
