Mystery Loach???

[Columbian Shark Catfish]

Yep, that' a Rostrata. Nice fish.

Thanks
Do they really get up to 8 inches?

Because I bought them thinking they would only get up to 4 inches like Zebras.

It is Rostrata?! I want one... ok four.

It would take a very long time for that fish to hit 8 inches.

yea I know, I've had them for months now and they're still a little more than inch

yea I know, I've had them for months now and they're still a little more than inch

I would say 6" max after alot of years.

^^ Yea, they're really cute. I hope my new Yoyos catch up with them

They are slow growers. I don't know about 8", but 6" is a good possibility. Feed a variety of foods.

Sounds like you're growing a nice Loach collection! Keep us updated on any new pickups.

I am getting sucked into Loaches so fast!
I have 2 weather loaches, 2 ladders and 2 yoyos

I want Zebras but I like to spoil my fish with all the room they can have.

But When I'm older I would love to have a HUGE loach community tank

I would take pics of the Yoyos but they're only 3/4 inch long.
