Lepidocephalichthys thermalis....
I also received what was supposed to be a bagfull of Sinogastromyzon wui, although only a small number turned out to be correctly identified. These are proving to be very shy and are difficult to photograph!....
(note the nosey Schistura in the neighbouring tank!):
Overhead shot (a bit dark) next to some Sewellia sp. 'spotted'
Underside shot....
I'll keep trying for better side on and overhead shots of these chaps before they go on sale.
Then there's these beauties which were labelled by the supplier as Vietnamese Homaloptera sp (Homaloptera 'danang'). To me, these look to be identical to the fish I kept up until last year that HH once identified for me as Annamia:
I'm going to be tempted into getting myself some more of these!
I also received some lovely little Characidium steindachneri, which, although a characin, look very loach-like:
The downside is that the supplier only sent me 5 (!!!) of those!
I'm trying for another Characidium species next week, so we'll see if they turn up.Whilst wandering about with my camera I also managed to get a few nice pics of an obliging Gastromyzon from the 'mixed Gastro' tank, which I think may be G. ocellatus? I'm sure Martin, Jim & co will be able to say for sure:
Yunnanilus brevis:
Male
Female
And finally, some 'little rays of sunshine', the golden Weather Loaches (Misgurnus anguillicaudatus):
More photos of the new additions will no doubt follow over the next couple of weeks.
Hope you enjoyed looking through them!

Resistance is futile. You will be assimilated.
