the clanwilliam yellowfish ("labeobarbus seeberi") is another large cyprinid in this basin endemic to the western cape region. it has been subject to some captive breeding effort and its stocks are in better shape. however, it may have gone extinct in the olifants river, and at least is almost certainly gone from between olifants gorge and clanwilliam dam. whether it will be reintroduced is unclear, as sawfin and clanwilliam yellowfish adults are probably ecological competitors, and until the olifants river is sufficiently restored ecologically both might not be able to thrive at the same time.
