Symbiosis;1328781; said:yeah i thought so too mate, picked it up off this guy who had no idea about loaches and he just wanted to offload it, i think he scored it from some friends.... unfortunately two of them didn't make it... they looked awesome but at the same time pretty diseased when i got them, they had a white milky glaze all over the body and their eyes were cloudy..... managed to save one though but it was the smaller one out of the 3... i have not seen any of that size since then for sale.. here is a picture that i took after they died... excuse the dirt on them as it was taken in the garden.....just keep waiting for them to come up on local forums again so i can go and snap it up, managed to get lots of 15~20 cm ones since then.....
cheers
