Fantastic tank Tom!
Beautiful Loaches Thomas!
I think that picture of Mr choy’s albo just shows how variable this fish is, looking at Peter Cottles page for albos , that last one looks more like roseus but not. I’m still convinced it’s a brightley coloured albo or a hybrid (most likely the latter
 But then again the colour in “tail” area does look similar to my old roseus. but the orange/red line on the anal fin is separate from the body in Marks fish, not in my roseus. </p>

I’m still convinced they are albos though. But still stunning whatever they are!

I’ve got three in my rio 400 and the two larger ones do fight and bully the smaller one a little but nothing bad comes of it. I wouldn’t have 3 in a tank smaller than 4′ though.
QUOTEEdit: and is it correct that the males develop red mouthparts when in spawning condition? Do they also get tubercules?This ones coming out of breeding condition i think, it;s been alot brighter not long before this photo was taken. You can just make out a little red
Yeah they do get tebercules.

They seem fine around each other now.

I think the Maidenhead aquatics near me had some in a few weeks back so they are around.I think Emma had some “neon green” rice rish of something similar in last time i was there, would have got some but i didn’t have anywhere to put them.

A schoolboy found a Plecostomus species in the Grand Union Canal near Wigston (Leics.). Sadly the poor fish was dead but how long it had survived in the Canal was, of course, unknown. Another sad case of aquarium fish release.
Regards David
I read that too. It’s sad to see.
