Lovely looking Goonch. Give him a little current and a flat stone to both sit on top of but also hide under. Keep feeding as you are and when he gets bigger we will have a better chance to get type accurate. Still really too small to do anything but guess.

I crash at the K-Pg
He looks like a rutilus at this point, but I'm hesitant to make that call, as I've not seen many this small, as his shape looks Indochina. I suspect that those two species are nearly indistinguishable at this small of a size.

I'd like to see it grow out some before making the final call, as this guy could be quite instructive to all of us as to which species it is, and how to tell indos from ruties at this size.

Fwiw, I'm leaning Indochina, but I'm not sure yet.
