One of the easier hillstreams to keep. Quite similar to Sewellia, but less attractive, cannot be sexed (both sexes are of the shape of Sewellia females), and apparently cannot be bred. When established, seems to eat everything. A bit more assertive than Sewellia. I have both in the same tank.

Finally got a descent picture of the newcomer. Think its beautiful. The shyness is starting to wear off.

Beautiful! Have you found any more yet?

None yet, but I'm patient.
