Just noticed on the 6th pic the shrimp looks as though it's trying to attack one of the dwarf loaches

thats what i thought
Thanks for the feedback all, much appreciated.
Thanks Cheesy my pics have got better, I got a new flash which I used for the fourth pic it gives a clearer pic and freezes even a fast moving fish. Straydum and Cheesy the nosey loach crashed into the shrimp .
Cheers Neon the loaches cost about five pounds or ten dollars over a year ago, I think they cost more than other small fish as they are harder to breed.
Thanks Paul and Mike.
And another loach having a tasty morsel “schistura sp “crimson” I think.

Nice loaches. Does the loach in that first picture always have its fins clamped on its body? Or is that just a picture of it swimming really fast?

Thanks very much iSnail, no injuries occurred due to the crash
Thanks Barra, yeah the fins are clamped as the fish is swimming fast, torpedo like.
The fattest one, I guess maybe female.

Wow stunning and fat!
What are the other two fish?Thanks fish-holic;The fish with the long fins is a South American killi don’t know if its got a common name but its Terranatos dolichopterus.The other loach is a ‘schistura’ I am not certain of the species.
This pic is a male the females don’t have the colour or long fins.

Wow yet another stunning fish and photo. You have yet to disappoint me. How big is the tank?
As for your other loach could it be a Schistura sexcauda.
