Sinibotia robusta

http://www.loaches.com/species-index/sinibotia-robusta

The only fish I kept by name was Tinman , a Giant silver Clown Knife
Chitala (Notopterus) chitala.After 8 or 10 years or so I traded him in a few months ago for more Clown Loach habitat losing a 10 pound fishes bioload opened up some space and I had also added 50 Syncrossus helodes I need to feed a lot which means lots of waste. My three largest Chromobotia macracanthus are differentiated as Left Spot,Right Spot and No Spot because of markings so those might be almost names.I have a Rapheal over 15 years old with no name..... :oops:

nor did I name this one that was my avatar :cry:

Thanks ....They are so playful and snotty at the same time. Little rocket powered attitudes in charge when they feel like it. I will find more and add a large group in time. I am still mourning. That one really was special to me.Maybe as the survivor but mostly for the looks I got 8) Truly the Joe Cool of the Loaches IMHO
