What kind of fish is this? I apologize for the crappy picture. It was at my LFS that is constantly getting new and different things and the labels on the tanks are wrong more often than not. It's clearly not "Brochis cat" because that's a type of cory.
I asked the employee and but he said that he didn't know, he had just gotten back from vacation and they were new. The owner was not in at the moment.
At first glance i thought that they were raphaels because of the stripes but the body shape is all wrong. They're about 3"-4" long, were snacking (or at least appeared to be snacking) on the algae on the plants and and fairly active. So active in fact that I couldn't get a decent picture of the little guys. They were being housed with discus.

It looks like a flying fox, but that's a very blurry picture.

That's what they were. This is exactly what they looked like.

Yeah, they're often sold as Siamese algae eaters.
