Re: Name this Akysis
As for colour, I have so far encountered light green,dark green,brown,red and cream variants. As to whether these represent separate species, I don't know.

Namaskar Shovelnose, thank you so much, it just goes to show you can't trust the supplier and my own eyes.
It's a great little fish and such fun to watch.
Thank you once again.
