I picked up 8 of these Gastromyzon's and 4 Sewellia spotted at Emma's last week:

I ended up with 4 scitulus, 3 ctenocephalus and a lone stellatus:

Me too Jim. That's a stunningly beautiful specimen.

I had one with fins heavily marked like that a few years ago, before we knew this was situlus. Unfortunatley, it didn't last very long.

Yes, plus the two immediately to the right and left with the larger spots along the dorsal surface.
