Is Sewellia lineoata a Catfish?

Post by Savory »

Hi, sorry for this probably dumb question, but I recently bought this beautiful and fenomenal algea-eating fish, but I can't find any info on this site or any site about it. Luckily I got the name of the fish from the shop.

Please, let me know if you know anything about it.

No, it is a hillstream loach of the family Balitoridae.
