Loaches Online Forum

Hi everyone.
I traveled to Hokkaido of the subarctic zone in the Japanese most north by a car and a ferry in the summer holidays.
I toured through wide range by a car and a ferry and took a picture of wild ecology of 2 kinds of loach.

I took a picture of Noemacheilus barbatulus toni in Hokkaido in the Japanese most north.
The video clip is in Youtube.

One next to Hokkaido went to a Japanese central part by a car ferry and took a picture of Niwaella delicata which is an endemic.
The video clip is blow.

The goby which is here with Niwaera dellicata is Rinogobius.
Rhinogobius sp. LD (large dark)
Several pictures have been put on a freshwater fish forum.

The fish above and to the right of the loach is a Salmonidae of some type. i think odyssey said it was a Salvelinus leucomaenis leucomaenis (White-spotted char) in the other thread.
