Might be able to get a hold of some (if i can afford them) but, before i do does anybody have info on these guys. Been looking on the web and can't find a good site that has adequate info on them. Or does anybody have personal experiences with them? Any info would be great thanks in advance! :D

I've kept Protomyzon and they require similar care to other Hillstream Loaches. Never kept this particular species, but you shouldn't find them difficult to keep.

Their color won't stay pretty for long. Black > brown, white > yellowish, and overall pattern turns less and less distinct with growth.
