Thanks!

Sadly the cf. manipurensis showed above is died today. Yesterday he jumped out of the bucket on the floor, by the other I have also not the best hope, I haven’t seen eat something, always lying around and do nothing but breathing. But the “peacocks” doing very well, always buring for some food

same as other lepidocephalichthys, last pectoral fin ray is thickened.

This is Charles/Torsos male:

I’m wonder why I’m unable to find at least one male between these round about 200 loaches. Unbelieveable! I’ve trained my eyes at my similar big L. thermalis. Such as these chap:

One of the cf. manipurensis has a very pointed head, looks like deformed. What do you mean? other ideas about the determination?

Just looking back at this, are you sure it’s a Lepidocephalichthys Thomas? The body also looks too elongated and the eye size/position are all wrong.
