In Response To: Re: rookie need identification (Michael Ophir)

I want to know more too Mike. This suggests to me that we are uncovering maybe another "complex" of closely related loaches that have black bodies. If yours have such deep red tails then I'd doubt that this one is the same with a washed-out tail colour, if the rest of it is a good black.Lets hope Aaron can describe some more to us.
