Get yourself a copy of "The Freshwater Fishes of Central Vietnam" by D.V. Serov, V.K. Nezdoliy & D.S. Pavlov (ISBN 5-87317-293-5).
There is info and pics of
Sewellia albisuera,
S. lineolata,
S. marmorata (also shown on the cover of the book),
S. patella, and
S. pterolineata. All are extremely beautiful and there are also a couple of
Sewellia habitat shots in there too.

Your spotties are mighty beasties Emma
but it,s hard to even get a Lineolata where i live
LFS keepers look at me blinking when i mention their name.
I,m jumpin up and down anytime i find out a hillstream species is available
just today a friend called me, saw he seen some Gastromyzon Ocellatus
Gonna check em out next week
Thanks for the advice on the book, that,s the second one to order
(also want the Borneo suckers book)
