cool, my vote hat impact of 50%
... As Mike states, clowns are "everyone´s darling" (I mean... you know... English is also my second language
and I love mine that I described them in another post as "under water dogs"
I hit "others", because my aborichtys is a top entertainer, his eye-contact was so obvious already in the store... Digging a lot, rebuilding his cave daily.
I pLayed with my finger tip on the glas, he comes toward me when I do that. Sliding my fingertip towards the sand, he started "digging out" the fingertip, when I went below the sandline, that was sooo sweet...
He goes for my finger outside the tank, inside the tank he is rather carefully taking offwhen I approach with hand...
I am still looking for more, but still not lucky...

I think everyone will know which species I voted for - it's rather obvious!
Marge is watching me right now from the shady depths of one of her bogwood hidey-holes, so I couldn't not vote for them!!!

I keep
Too many Loaches to just narrow it down to one. But these
Botia Dario are quite 'Goofy' at times.

I have got to go with 'other' and vote for hillies ;-) I don't think you can beat the franic feeding anticts of cheni with their flashing dorsal fins...
(of course i am very biased on this not keeping any other loaches!)

Yeah, I have to say that my yoyos (when I had them) were WAY fun to watch. Also enjoyed my botia eos alot too, but he was a killer...

I’ve voted other & will put forward Blackline Loaches (Botia nigrolineata). They’re constantly on the go, chasing all over the tank in every nook & cranny, they come to watch you watching them, an absolutely brilliant fish.

OK, I voted for the Kubotai's.
The honest vote would have been for the Clowns, but I think they are doing fine without my vote, and "None of the Above" never got anyone elected.
But I do find some hillstreams (Chenis, Schisturas) more exciting than Botia's.
