OK, if you like this, here is how it can work: post ADD requests at the end of this thread to what you think is worth indexing and I'll merge them into the top post, which will be the index, and before long we may have a useful resource.

I think it would be good to keep some of the natural habitat pics either here or as another sticky. The trouble is, we could end up with too many stickies at this rate! :lol:

There was a good thread here by Nonn, on Botia kubotai in it's natural habitat, for example: http://forums.loaches.com/viewtopic.php?t=418

IMHO, a single index page on species and try to keep the index as terse as possible. Possibly another index on diseases.

Added. I also added your Yoyotai loach, he is one of a kind and should not be forgotten. Obviously, your large tank/Margie should be indexed too, but your pictures were in different threads, maybe you can say which one.

This Sewellia lineolata fight sequence might be worth adding: http://forums.loaches.com/viewtopic.php?t=176

This thread combines the new 'spotted Sewellia' and natural habitat pics of Sewellia lineolata: http://forums.loaches.com/viewtopic.php?t=1480

All in. Actually, it is also possible to link to a particular post in a thread, I've indexed Graeme's Aborichthys photos that were buried inside another thread.

This is evolving into an index of Graeme's fish. Oh well.
