Burmese Banded Redtail Goat Face Loach

Post by Emma Turner » Sat Apr 26, 2008 11:00 am

These cute little 1.5"TL Schisturas came in about 10 days ago. They were simply listed as "Burmese Banded Redtail Goat Face Loach - Schistura sp. redtail":

They are very shy and I haven't had a chance to put them into a photo tank as yet. Any ideas on the species :?:

Isn't the whole point in a common name that it's easier to say/remember than the latin?! And they don't look red or goat-like! Still, nice fishies!
