What I have observed so far:
>Generally a very mellow, somewhat outgoing loach. They are not frightened by me or a camera flash.
>Intimidated to some degree by the big physco, male cheni in the tank.
>Haven't bothered the Bumblebee cats or V. maasi other than occasionally trying to share their favorite hiding places.
>Eat typical loach diet such as bloodworms and brine shrimp. I fed them some mysis the other day before they were openly feeding. I not see them eat them but imagine they did.
>Have a taste for Rhinogobius duospilus eggs. :cry:

Maybe I will.
I'm just happy to have a loach that Graeme Robson doesn't have. :wink:
The problem with photographing the tank they are in is that its just above the floor. Trying to get in position to get a shot can be a bit awkward at times.

I know what you mean Jim. I had a 20 gallon L once that was only 3 inches off the floor...taking photos of the fish in there was time consuming and physically painful...haha.

Anyways, nice looking loaches again.
