easy SAE ID...

1. All fins are transparent.
2. There is only a black stripe down the side of the fish. the edges are kind of zig zagged.
3 the black stripe continues through the tail fin. the stripe does NOT stop at the fin, but runs through the center of it.

also when the sae will lay on the bottom, his head will be pointed upwards and not rest on the bottom with the rest of the body. flying foxes will lay completely flat against the bottom.
