it's a bit of a weirdo... it's the only one that doesn't like the barbs :?
when the barbs come to close to his rock he or she really get's pist off by them... but it's doesn't like me coming near it to... on the picture is has a small wooden thing i took it out since he gets all worked up if a fish got to close but know he has a rock wich he can't sleep under (he sleeps under a rock near to it) but ow dear if a fish dares to touch that rock he goes mad...

i'll try and film it but this one really and i mean really doesn't like the camera. that's why i was very proud to trick him and took a quick shot of him. most pictures are blurs...

That's a really pretty little loach. When you keep a species of loach you start to appreciate how wonderfully varied they are, each one unique with a personality all of its own. Never really noticed it with tetras etc.

There are 5 of these here at the LFS. As I was getting supplies it took all my restraint not to buy them.
