picked up this little guy today. had a look around and tryed to id him but so far carnt find anything.
all the shop could tell me was it came from asia.
im expecting it to a decent grower, the shop said under the 2ft mark but i bet its a bigger grower.

its a Leiocassis kinda looks like hosii but there pretty rare could be micropogon but i'm leaning twords hosii
 
info ive managed to sort out is that they are expected to grow anywere inbetween 150-250mm so around the8"/10" mark. there dosile towards most fish and they live in clear forest streams with good flow and sandy bottom.

so quite a nice pick up i think. nothing thats gunner get to big if anything slightly to small but we will have to watch growth rate.
cheers for the help lads.
