Can't believe its been a month already since I met with the British loach fans. I had a great time with both catfish and loach people at the CSG Convention 2009. And I heard you guys...number one request was for
splendida. The first jags of the hobby are headed your way asap.

Hi Kamphol,
Hope you are keeping well. How many Y. splendida did you manage to find (approx)? The photos are amazing. Are these coming in via Patrick?
Best wishes,
Emma

Hey Emma,
I'm fine thanks. Took a week to get 30 jags which are going to that Northern Simian. Patrick will probably have stock in May if the rainy season will just hold off for another 2-3 weeks. If it rains, its over until November.

You may know what my next question is Kamphol, could we use the images for our Loach species Index please!

You bet Graeme, only stipulation is that you make the correction in the Species Index :
"Yasuhikotakia splendida (Kottelat, 2004)"
to
"Yasuhikotakia splendida (Roberts, 1995)"

Ok, Mr.Kamphol, that fish is not going anywhere unless I have my hand on them first. See you tomorrow

Those are truly beautiful Loaches. I wonder if we'll ever see them in the US?
Does anyone know what their aggression level is??? Similar to Skunks?
I'd set up a tank just for them!
Thanks for sharing the photos Mr. Kamphol!
MMMMMMM!
