Any clue?
Hello all,
At my LFS there was one of these guys that came in with the Gastromyzon scitulus'
Of course I took it home and can't place the species. It is not only different in colour and shape, but also much more active then the others I have.
Some of you guys have a clue?
Thanks,
Michael

Looks like a Chinese algae eater - "Gyrinocheilus aymonieri" to me
Re: Any clue?
Looks very interesting! Perhaps Neogastromyzon??
Please more pics and a pic from underside could be useful.

Re: Any clue?
A careful look at the photo (particularly at the pectoral and pelvic fins) shows that this fish definitely resembles a "sucker body" type fish, and is not similar to a chinese algea eater.
Not that I know what species it is...

It's a juvenile pseudogastromyzon fasciatus.
