Leptobotia taeniops!
Emma & I recently received a shipment of Leptobotia taeniops. They are absolutely stunning! We bought several of them home to our fish room. Here are some pics taken when they arrived at the shop and when we acclimatised some at home. I'll add better pictures later, but here's a little taster!

Thank you 
Here are a few more pics of our L. taeniops now they are all settled in at home:
This last pic is not the best, but it shows just how luminous the dorsal surface can become!

Re: Leptobotia taeniops!
Those fish have incredible patterns. I can see how they would help them blend in with the substrate.
Re: Leptobotia taeniops!
Great looking fish. Hope some of them making across to the US.

Ah, one day I'll have room for all of these amazing fish.
