Just terrible, I don't know how you've got the cheek to keep posting them! :P

Seriously.....those are very beautiful Schisturas. 8) How do you find the S. spilota behaviour-wise? (I've heard they can be a bit disorderly!). Do you keep them together or separately? The 5" one must look very impressive 'in the flesh'.

Thanks :D

These chaps are not too bad regarding the aggression. It's mainly at feeding times when these chaps become blinkered onto the foods. Others have to give way until they calm down. Botia dario,Botia kubotai as in other loaches.
