Here he is stuck to the side of a pot in my tank:

very ! nice little guy. I have been wanting a hillstream loach ... maybe if i set up a cool water tank with some local minnows ...

how do you like your loach and how does he rank compared to plecs?

thanks guys

here he is hiding behind a plant:

I got another too, he is smaller so named him Minisukki


@ noelberg - I like them both very much, would love to have more. Some store's call him a pleco or hong kong plec, same kind of family I guess. Go for it!

Thanks

They are the best

Minisukki is on top - he is a slightly different colour. They seem to be able to change skin colour too, sometimes seeming darker and lighter. Minisukki seemed really white once.
