Reticulated Hillstream Loach (Sewellia lineolata)
Product Details
Hillstream loaches are totally unique in the world of freshwater fish. Many fish have adaptations which allow them to stay in place despite strong currents. Gobies have pelvic fins which are fused into small suction cups. Plecos have mouths which they use as holdfasts. Darters have elongated fins which act like spoilers on a racecar, pushing them down against the substrate as the water flows over. However, no other fish has taken these adaptations as far as the hillstream loaches, which have turned themselves into one big suction cup with perfect fluid dynamics.
This unique body shape stands out and has made them immensely popular with aquarists, who refer to them as "UFOs," and "miniature stingrays." Their popularity is reinforced by their behavior. These bold fish are active throughout the day, tirelessly grazing the rocks, wood, and other aquarium surfaces for algae and biofilm, making them endlessly fascinating to observe.
