Now that I'm looking again, I think mick may be right. Doesn't look like a clown (or what would be left of one).

Yeah, I can tell by the markings that that is most certainly not a clown loach. I'm not sure what it is. It could be a yoyo, but I'm not sure. I'm only certain that that is not a clown.
Something of a mystery?

Thanks all,
My cat is inocent (at least of taking fish out from water). He was a kind of hero here, bringing me the fish for me to take it back to the water. Ok... without the head and caudal fin...

Hey Mick,
You´re absolutelly right!
After posting here I noticed that my alpha YoYo loach was missing. At first I thought on a Clown because of size of the carcass but dorsal fin was not matching one of a Clown. Did not see my Alpha YoYo since that. So, you´re probably right!
Thanks again!

Thats an unfortunate loss of life Marcos. At least you had a learning experience. The PVC tubes look good. Nicely obscured with the rocks.
So hows things in the tank? Have the Yo Yos established a new alpha?

Hi Robert,
Thanks for posting.
Have the Yo Yos established a new alpha?
It is hard to say as they keep ghosting each other all day long. They are probably trying to stablish a new pecking order.

Wonder why the cat would go for the head and tail and leave the middle?
Good question!

Why he eat the head and tail leaving the best part for me?
I don´t have a clue...

Brain and area were eggs are produced and held are of the highest nutrition and energy-bears only feed on these parts, and discard the rest of the fish when the salmon come to spawn-maybe your kitty has the same idea???

Not sure which one is the bear. The one with glasses or the one with the fancy bra?
