The Kanglang fish (Anabarilius grahami) is a species of cyprinid fish. It is a pelagic species endemic to Fuxian Lake in Yunnan, southern China.[2] However, the species may now be in the process of extinction because of the introduced noodlefish Neosalanx taihuensis, with which it is competing for food.[3]
