Emperor Botia photo's

Thanks for the info Mark , when it comes to Botia's i dont take much talking round ha ha , i should imagine the interaction with the Histrionica's could be due to the similarities ?

No probs

When they are side by side they do look very similar apart from colour

even the wife reckons they are actually the same fish just coloured differently

It does seem to be the males of both species that interact the most.

sigh.....the brige to far at this time here. I am excited to read the accounts of these fish as these and Histi's are on the someday list for me. Wonderful specimens that apparently eat rather well

Thanks Tinman, I never thought I would be able to get these or the wild histies but when the chance cropped up I took it

Some times I think they eat a little to well

Hi Tinman , its a shame that some of these fish are so ellusive to you !
lets face it we need people like yourself , people with boundless enthusiasm , it helps us all in our quest for knowledge , though i dont doubt that they will show up eventually ! GOOD LUCK.
