The Kansu loach, Sinibotia robusta, is a botiid loach from the Zhu Jiang (Pearl River) system in Guangxi, southern China. Its deeper, stockier body separates it from other Sinibotia. With S. pulchra it is the most commonly traded member of the genus, and the two are often imported in mixed batches. Young fish have around 6 dark bars that usually bifurcate as they mature.
