look what i picked up at the LFS today couldnt believe the markings on these so i had to grab them and at £3.99 or 3 for £10 its a little to cheap to let it go by
i am loving these fish already they are fantastic not sure what my larger clowns will think when these 3 leave the Q tank in a month or 2 lol

yup i could only see these three that didnt look like any other clown so i had the guy catch specific ones for me and he done it so well didnt waste no time straight in and had all 3 bagged within 3 mins and didnt chase at all, the guy is fantastic when it comes to loaches.

Hi rave,
Does the one without the middle stripe have a funny head shape, or are my eyes playing tricks? Does it look like this one?

It's good that he/she has a nice home.

Here's another old thread of mine that shows a Yoyo loach (
Botia almorhae) with the same strange head shape:

the way i see it is i wouldnt kill and dispose of a deformed kid so i wont be doin it with my loaches thats for sure, infact i picked these 3 as they all have something unusual about them once they get in my 450litre loach tank they will be fantastic i think
