NEW LOACH LOVER/ SOON TO BE LOACH KEEPER (help!)

Post by EAlba » Thu Oct 06, 2011 2:28 pm

I have just got into aquariums and fish and need some help finding a place online or store, were ever that could sell me some hillstream loaches. my tank is going to be set up for hillstream loaches. these are the loaches that im wanting to get

Aborichthys Elongatus
Annamia Normani
Aborichthys kempi
Beaufortia Keichowensis
Gastromyzon Ctenocephalus
Gastromyzon Danumensis
Gastromyzon Ocellatus
Glaniopsis Ocellatus
Homaloptera Bilineata
Homaloptera Ogilviei
Neogastromyzon Crassiobex
Protomyzon whiteheadi
Pseudogastromyzon cheni
Sewellia Lineolata
Sewellia Spotted


now i know i cant get them all and i know some are rare but you get the idea of what im looking for.
Let me tell you how i fell in love with these creatures. well growing up my family had a tank with one of those common catfish suckers (i dont know what they are called) and i always liked it. So i grew up and now im with my fionce who is a lover for Cychlids from lake Tanganika. I always told him about sucker fishes (the name i always used) but he would always say no their ugly :(.. but :) one day we went to get some cychlids for his tank and we came acrossed the beautiful Sewellia Lineolata and he liked it and of course i loved it. we asked what it was of course the shop we went to the guy was unexperienced and most of the fish he had were dieing he said it was a loach. so we left and i researched it and found a whole new world of fish and we went back and bought it. It loves his cychid tank! and thats how i came acrossed loaches.... :)

could anyone be able to help me?by the way iam going to get my own seperate 150 gallon fish tank.
