Caught this fish on a tassie devil here in Victoria today, I think it's a galaxia.... but I'm not that experienced with them... any ideas?

Cheers

Its a galaxia, back in the day we used a minnow trap with bread to trap them, we fished them under a bubble float at lake Murdeduke, a deadly combination, galaxia may be protected now but I don't know ?
