Can you offer a scale, MD? How big are these loaches compared to adult B. dario? They share some features, I think. Look at photo #3.

Whatever, those loaches are amazing.
Your vantage point determines what you can see.

Photo's 1 & 2 are the same fish which is around 12cm

Photo 3 is my biggest male which is around 15cm

Photo's 4 & 5 are again the same fish which is around 14cm

All 6 are around the same size and two of the Histi's are about the same size with the other two Histi's been bigger still.
