Sinibotia robusta

The only fish I kept by name was Tinman , a Giant silver Clown Knife
Chitala (Notopterus) chitala.After 8 or 10 years or so I traded him in a few months ago for more Clown Loach habitat losing a 10 pound fishes bioload opened up some space and I had also added 50 Syncrossus helodes I need to feed a lot which means lots of waste. My three largest Chromobotia macracanthus are differentiated as Left Spot,Right Spot and No Spot because of markings so those might be almost names.I have a Rapheal over 15 years old with no name.....

nor did I name this one that was my avatar

Sorry to hear it Tinman. It's always sad when the long-timers pass on.

I have two sini's and they are a hoot.

sorry to hear
I have two robusta and they are a joy to watch.
If that is possible, at the speed of light.

Thanks ....They are so playful and snotty at the same time. Little rocket powered attitudes in charge when they feel like it. I will find more and add a large group in time. I am still mourning. That one really was special to me.Maybe as the survivor but mostly for the looks I got

Truly the Joe Cool of the Loaches IMHO
