Road leading to habitat, forest have been cleared for seasonal agriculture.
The river, this is the part where i was about to do some snorkling.
But then, I was push a side by the local gangster. I have to wait until they are done before I can resume my intention. They not only made the water muddy but also pee and poo!
The most common loach was Nemacheilus binotatus.
Something I wasn't expected! From the sandy bottom part of the stream.
Acanthopsoides gracilentus
Even more exciting to see this two genera together in one frame! Acanthopsis sp. and the Acanthopsoides gracilentus. Don't tell me you can't find the Acanthopsis!!
Some other part of the habitat. In this rapid I only found Homaloptera smithi. The most common hillstream.
Large clump of Cryptocoryne crispatula var. crispatula
A very rare loach from different trip. This one come from the Eastern part of the country. This was difficult to find and was extremely difficult to photograph because it live in a very turbid water. I'm glad I finally got this shot.
Just a little game, who can tell me what loach is this one??
I hope these help you guys make a better home away from home for all the loaches!
pictures are worth a thousand words, and certainlly help with tank setups for certain species 
Resistance is futile. You will be assimilated.
