Loaches Online Forum

These are what I bought yesterday at the LOL get together

First the non loach buys:

Rasbora Rasbora


Rasbora Cephalotaenia - Porthole Rasbora


Rasbora Brittani


Garra Flavatra


Crossocheilus Nigriloba


And now for the Loaches

Botia Almorhae just over 5"


Botia Dario


Sewellia Sp Spotted - these are HUGE



Les kindly gave gave me 3 of his lovely young P. Cheni to add to my existing group (these pics don't do them justice)



Emma gave me 10 of her baby Sewellia Lineolata which seem to be right at home along with the P. Cheni



I would like to thank everyone for making it a great day

Great choice in fish Mark, you've really got the asian fish bug !

Superb additions Mark! I was tempted with the array of Rasbora's but i had other reasons...

You have quite a nice collection of Rasboras. That Botia Almorhae is going to be very nice once it settles in.

More very high quality fish Ive seen that have come from Emma and Steves store. Looks like everyone had a good day

Awesome collection. Those Rasbora brittani are rather pretty. Never seen them before.

That's 10 different species and counting

I think you will be hard pushed to find someone who would question the quality of their fish

These are only the second batch of R. Brittani that I have ever seen so needless to say I wasn't passing up the chance to get some

Very nice selection!!!
Just how big are the spotted sewellia anyway?

Thanks Jim, they are all between 2 1/4" and 2 1/2" total length and the biggest one is just over 1 1/2" wide

Here is one of them compared to one of the bigger P. Cheni

WOW. Very immpressive purchase

Now that's a big sewellia!!

Yea! These chaps are the Wui of the Sewellia kind!

Glad to see all arrived safely!

They all seem to have settled in really well Emma

Ive even seen little shoving matches between the baby Lineolata and the Cheni and Spotty's.

I couldnt beleive what I was seeing a baby Lineolata just over 1/2" trying to shove a 2 1/2" Spotty

Now that would be a fun shopping trip!! Beautiful, healthy fish!!

Brilliant, Mark. I especially like those Rasbora cephalotaenia and brittani (sorry, loach fans ). Looks like I missed a great day out I must make it next time.
