Hi,
I have 3 of these tiny fish. They were sold to me as "Butterfly Plecs". But when I looked at those on here, they didn't look the same to me :shock: . So am I daft, or are they something else entirely? Sorry about the quality :oops:
Be glad for all opinions. Ta.

I suspect that you have a hillstream loach (either Gastromyzon, Pseudogastromyzon, Beaufortia or some other related genera).
Here's a Beaufortia:

Sorry about that! I'm still trying to get the hang of this :oops: !! The picture you've posted is very similar..... so I think that's it.
Thanks.
