No meez, Harold doesn't ship fish. These fish came from a common supplier to Emma and Harold.....I'm not sure if Frank uses them.
Here's the super-stripey guy....this is one fab fish. They're ALL out going nuts this morning.
Token dirty glass photo so Emma can point her finger and giggle.....(it's the end panel of the tank).
Here you can see just how different this one is.
Loachy dancing.

That stripy one is very cool! I'm inclined to think he's a smicincta, but you may have a few maylana's in there. Does that second bar meet under the chin?

Thay are lovely specimens! Most of the ones we see are like spaggetti! Very Very thin and small... They look lovely and plump!

Good going Thoene. A dedicated kuhli tank is a great idea.

I didn't know kuhlis could get that chunky.

Fantastic! I would be doing my normal drooling but it seems I have finally found a source of the loaches I want in Vancouver. Getting some new kubo's and striata (finally), and P. kuhlii or P. myersi. All listed as nice big fish. Just picked up a 55 gal tank that will be a loach tank and will serve as a quarantine tank when I get the fish. Anyway, I hope mine will be as nice as those guys. Just beautiful!

I envy you all with how easy it is for you to get loaches of all sorts. I have to go on a treasure hunt for what I can get.
And Martin's pictures just make it worse. Those guys are lovely Martin and they have a beautiful home. Hope they breed some.
But then my advantage is that I get them cheaper. I pay about $2 for clown loaches and my skunks and dojos were less than a dollar each.

Beautiful!
I live in Singapore but I don't see such perfect species around!

Absolutely stunning!
The stripy looking chap looks like a
Pangio pulla and a
Pangio semicincta all in one!

As I do.
I live in the Philippines as well, Rocco.
Kuhlis are certainly nice. I'm still waiting for more to come in stock.lol

very nice khulis. You definitely did get a good batch of them. They are so diverse in their patterns.
