Thanks! It is always a wonderful experience to witness an aspect of nature that few folks get a chance to see and even better to be able to share it with friends. Oh, I should add http://www.loaches.com is a great informational website (or specifically for Sewellia lineolata).

That was a great video, not sure if it was a fight or mating, but I've never seen that before. I had over 10 Hillstream loaches of different varieties and yours are nice, you called it a Tiger is that the same as the reticulated?? Really cool.

I can't find them locally anymore, where are you getting them??

It is fighting, it is how they display dominance.

Hill stream loaches occasionally show in some area stores, and are commonly on importer lists.
