Any idea?

Could it be something like in Haakon's thread?
But botia unknown 3 sound more possible?

I don't like that they are selling schistura pridii (BTW has anyone got theirs spawning?)! But the plec list looks good.

ps, any idea on hara sp. cf. pussilus aswell?

It wouldn't surprise me if the Botia cf. histrionica are the Ataran variant of B. histrionica. All those loaches are undoubtedly from one of my main suppliers (I recognise his common names) and a while back I got in a few large B. histrionica, supposedly from the Ataran. These beautiful fish are now in Mad Duff's excellent care.

The Hara cf. pusillus are likely to be a species similar to Erethistes pusillus.

They probably look something like these David:

All of these are well over 5" now
