Kuhli ID?

Post by zukharla » Tue Feb 12, 2008 8:26 pm

Hey guys,
Bought a Striped Kuhli Loach about a month ago to add to my collection of 10 striped kuhlis and 5 black kuhlis. Well I purchased him because he looked a little "different". At the time he was extremely skinny so I thought it could just be because of that but now he's filled out, an ideal weight and very active. You know how the usual striped kuhlis have those purple-pink "saddles" down their back which stop about three quarters of the way down? Well this guy has black stripes, a yellowy skin colour and they go right to the bottom of the belly in full circles. I've had a look at the species index but can't find my guy. Am unable to get photos due to no camera!
Anyone have any idea what he is?
Thanks.

Yes! The only difference is my guy has yellow spots in his bands towards the tail. Probably just a pattern.
Thank you.
