I'm having that now, one week after my Gyrinocheilus aymonieri died after a 5.5 hour power failure while the family was away.

Now I know how hard it was working. Go get one, but think hard before introducing it as it is rather difficult to catch out without CO2. More than 1, and it quarrels. Mine killed all its brethren, turned to kill the other loaches and finally became king in the tank - even an 8 inch Pacu is subject to it.
Warm regards,

brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable--if anything is excellent or praiseworthy--think about such things.
