Kelah / mahseer usually have very big scales, from top to bottom i heard they are called arowana koi in some areas due to their large scales.
it looks like a tin foil barb to me, but who knows, keep it longer, maybe it's a rare short body version like the one below? (from web):

Mind sharing where you get this. Sometime rojak barb is mixed with green kelah to sell, but price should not be more than a red note.

Looks like what bro washywashy described as per above. Java barb is most likely.
