Sensational. They must be happy little loaches with this level of care. Keep on loaching!

Rick,

Great stuff. Could you mention the sizes of the fish?

I'm guessing -- and comparing the shape & pattern development with mine -- that the Kub on the top pic is not very large, probably in the 1.5"-2" range. True?
