Hi guy, pls help me to ID the following fishes...
First picture is a contaminant among the microrasboras 'galaxy' from c328.
2nd and 3rd are same piece of loach... which I suspect is Cobitis Choii ??

Yippie!! Reptiles and Fishies!
first fish is microrasbora erythromicron.. the loaches white white cannot see..lol
the loach looks like that recent "rosy loach" from myanmar, most likely undescribed.
why I don't do garden hybrids and aquarium strains: natural species is a history of Nature, while hybrids are just the whims of Man.

Never create what you can't control
Where did you scoop the loach from? If from the CRS tank in C328, it is the rosy loach, which is normally in rosy reddish colour. Your specimen looks really stressed.
Yep, thanks for the ID ranmasatome...Is this fish readily available in Singapore ? They look just as cool as 'galaxy'.Originally Posted by ranmasatome
Loach still stress, so white white le.
Thanks guys, I think the loach should be 'rosy' loach...Indeed caught from c328. It don't like to be handled by net...but once it get acclimatised, it became extremely lively and greedy.
How come it is undescribed? New species ?

No idea. Could be described but nobody knows for sure what these are. The loaches people didn't know either.
Pictures of a couple of mine...

I've got 4 of them, hardy fishes. They remind me of Corydoras hastatus, they like to hover around in midwater and very playful.
What did you feed your rosy loaches with ? Yah, I was kind of conned to believe that they are bottom dwellers.
Size wise, have your speciemens grow much bigger? Or still remain as small ?

Growth is not noticable, maybe just slightly. Fed them just about anything, flakes, granules, live tubifex, BBS. They aren't choosy eaters.

Used to find tons of M.erythromicron at chiong sua... but i think every now and then you can still find them
