Hi Farid,

You mean Pseudogastromyzon or not? Are they from "Aquarium Glaser"? I really like the loaches of this genus, but I haven't one of them.

I wait for more pics. :)

Bye,
Thomas

Congrats farid! 8)

You shouldn't have to much trouble breeding these, I cant remember what water parameters mine where when i bred mine but basically all of my tanks are kept in neutral waters, fresh tap water normally of ph7.2 but drops to 6.8. and general 8 - 12 dH, 140 - 210 ppm.

Best of luck!

Hi farid.
I have probably raised 3 kinds of Pseudogastromyzon genus by now.

I thought Pseudogastromyzon.sp of the following my pictures was "fangi".

Because that was same as pictures of Species Index in LOL.
http://www.loaches.com/species-index/ps ... yzon-fangi

But your Pseudogastromyzon is similar to "fangi" of FishBase.
http://www.fishbase.org/Summary/species ... p?ID=55024

Umm, it's disturbing.

hi odyssey
i have no idea how goog fishbase is...

and i am also not that sure that mine is a fangi because in the same order also orderes 15 G. punctulatus as the dealer wrote me an email to tell me he can organize P.fangi and G. punctulatus finely i got "fangi's" if it's the real one???

and i got of course not a punctulatus but 3ocellatus stellatus and ctenocephalus as i expected.

so maybe someone can help?

cheers

farid, i don't think yours is fasciatus in Martins pics and the fish i've just got , it shows a double bar on the head whereas your fish are spotted .
also Odyssey posted his on the hill stream thread and his again showed the two bars.
unless it's a variant that is?.

Hi farid.

I'm very interested in your Pseudogastromyzon.sp.
I think there is a possibility that your Pseudogastromyzon.sp is different from the fish species of my picture and P.fasciatus in mick.

Could you show me a picture from the back?
A comparative picture of Pseudogastromyzon genus from the back has been put on a different thread of mick.

Thank you for preparing pictures, Graeme.

The pictures posted to the thread of hill stream P.fasciatus are also copied to this thread.

The first Pseudogastromyzon.sp and fasciatus? . 2005-2006.
A very small individual was mingled with P.cheni, and they were sold.
Image
Image
Image

Very big individual. P.fasciatus? 2006.
Image
Image
Image

Individual with the medium size. P.fasciatus? 2008.
Image
Image
Image

Pseudogastromyzon.sp ??fangi?? 2007.
I think farid's new Pseudogastromyzon.sp is the different species.
Image
Image
Image


General Pseudogastromyzon cheni.
Image
Image
Image

Aren't at least 4 species of Pseudogastromyzon genus sold including P.cheni?
