Looks like a fantastic book, Odyssey.

Hope I can find it in the near future.

Great photos, Odyssey.

It's nice to see the different patterns on Niwaella delicata.

Looks like a Pseudogobiopsis to me, probably a female specimen.

It might be useful to check the following two papers.

Hi Odyssey,

Nice pictures and video.
Sometimes my Sicyopterus sp. act like the ones in the video and show their most beautiful colours.
Mine are from Indonesia and probably are S. lagocephalus.
What do you think?

Kajsa12

Yes, you remembered correctly.
I have two female and two male S. percnopterygionus for about a year.
They are doing fine and share the tank with several other Stiphodon species, Sicyopterus(probably S. lagocephalus) and a few other species.

Stiphodon percnopterygionus (in the background Stiphodon ...

Wonderful pictures, Odyssey.
I always enjoy your informative postings.

I wonder what that unknown Stiphodon might be.

Kajsa12

They are Stiphodon "Rainbowcolour"(ST02)

Both are males, I think.

What is the little disc?

It's a tablet for herbivorous fish. The ones in the video contain 20% Spirulina.
I also use JBL Novofect.

And how come it doesn't blow away with the water current?

When you give it a firm push and turn, it will stick to the aquariumglass or the stones/rocks.

hi Henri
did I see that correctly: you have a pair? verrry nice ...
cheers Charles

Hi Charles,

Did you mean the ones in the video?
I'm not sure about it.
When I have more time I'll try to shoot some pics of all six Hypergastromyzon.

Kajsa12

I should have been more specific with my question. :)
I meant the difference in behaviour between Hypergastromyzon and the other balitorids.
My Hypergastromyzon are the boldest and most active species in the tank; they behave like little children.
At night they will rest in the strongest current ...

Kajsa12

Fantastic tank, Menu!

What's your experience with Hypergastromyzon compared to the other balitorids so far?

Kajsa12

I think the pattern of G.zebrinus is changing when time has passed.

Yes, I think that's true.
Probably young specimen are striped and when they grow older the pattern will change to spots.

According to the advice that I heard from a local guide, you had better have seemed to go in the dry season.
It was said to be a good season from June to August from the guide.

Thanks Odyssey, I'll keep that in mind.
Probably I will visit Sarawak, but I'm not sure which part; The southern part ...
