New Fish Additions

[Mad Duff]

I had a drive down to a friends shop in Peterborough last week to pick up some new Loaches and Rasboras. A good day was had and a few nice fish were bought

Botia dario

Botia almorhae - this one is around 5"

Rasbora rasbora

Rasbora cephalotaenia - Porthole Rasbora a very hard fish to find :shock:

Rasbora brittani very rarely imported fish

Crossocheilus nigriloba - Penguin SAE newly imported species

Garra flavatra - Panda Garra

And some more Hillstream Loaches

I bought these Sewellia sp Spotted

A very good friend Les met up with us and gave me these Pseudogastromyzon cheni that he has bred to add to my existing group

And my friend Emma who's shop we visited gave me some of her baby Sewellia lineolata that she has bred

Very very nice new fish Duff, looks like you had a good day!
I would love some Pseudogastromyzon cheni. They are stunning! How much did you pay for them?
I love the panda garra, still never seen them in real life. Excellent Botia to, everything has great colours and patterns.

Thanks for all the comments

I would love some Pseudogastromyzon cheni. They are stunning! How much did you pay for them?

Those P. cheni were bred by a friend of mine and he gave them to me to add to my current group of 7, when mine start to breed I will give him some of my young. The existing group of 7 that I already had cost me around £5 per fish.
As well as the P. cheni I also have Gastromyzon Ocellatus, Gastromyzon ctenocephalus, Gastromyzon scutilus, Gastromyzon stellatus, Sewellia lineolata and the Sewellia sp Sotted.

All of those pictures were taken in small photography tanks which helps a lot, but lots of practice helps as well .

Nice fish! how much did that load cost you?

All in just under £100, I got a couple of other bits and bobs as well. I dont really buy fish regularly from local shops any more I wait until I can travel to my friends shop and get exactly what I want.
