For Donna: Some Kuhli photos

We did a major re-decorating of the Kuhli tank today, and with Donna's inspiration, installed a shelf. The thing is, our Kuhlis own the tank, and they know it, so they have not been so much interested in hanging out under it.

What a happy kuhli! Great striping, big bold dark bands.

We aren't sure if they are anguilaris or doriae (sp?)

For some reason, this is the biggest photo I seem to be able to post. Gotta get Mr Cloudhands to help.... confusers are not my thing

That is what we thought, but they move so fast it is hard to get a good look :)

And they were labelled as "neon pink kuhlis" which seems to be a common name for the doriae

Nice photos, and nice pangios. Your tank looks like it would be a kuhli heaven. :)

Eel Loach? Never heard 'em, but now I want some! Looks like they'd get along just fine with my kuhlis.
"Considered a delicacy in parts of Thailand"? Who'd bother to catch and cook a bunch of three-inch skinny little fish, much less eat them? They can't be very filling.
Maybe pangios can come up with a kuhli version of Squid Pro Quo (leave calamari off the menu, and they provide the ink to print it.)
