windeindoiel Posted August 24, 2006 Report Share Posted August 24, 2006 I've never heard of them, and I can't recall ever seeing them offered in a store. I'd do some searching online and see if you can find them for sale there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a1foxes Posted August 24, 2006 Report Share Posted August 24, 2006 we got three of them @ petland in GPthey we marked as "Redfin zibra loach." didn't look like the pics on the net. so some said it lookes like the above name stupid petland Imperial in Calgary has some that might be the same thing, but alas using a different name. They called them skunk botia, however I'm thinking, they are botia 'beramodi'???sorry the spelling might not be quite right i dont have my book handy. I have 4 of them, they are alot like green tiger botias, only they have the red dorsal fin. Mine make 'clicky' noises when they scrap or its feeding time. same ones perhaps?

Toirtis Posted August 24, 2006 Report Share Posted August 24, 2006 Last time I was in, Franco's Aquariums in Calgary had several, listed as 'redfin sand loaches' or 'burmese border sand loaches' or some such. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vapor Posted August 24, 2006 Report Share Posted August 24, 2006 Mine make 'clicky' noises So do my yoyo and clown loaches. Seems to be quite common. I'm not sure but I think it is actually a sucking noise. Not sure what type you have there. Nice looking though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toirtis Posted August 25, 2006 Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 Most loaches do indeed click....I believe it may be their teeth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
