hardly catch more than 3 in one collection

Interesting discovery!Hats off to HH.

I too wish to get the copy

May I get the copy, if possible

What a trip. I like loaches, they are really beautiful!

Could the pics be submitted for cat-e-log?

Sure, I'll give it to Balaji

They are not rare, the biggest one attain 70 mm SL (approx)

yep, something is better than nothing.

So sad that none survived!

They are from different drainage, are they similar or differ?(Sorry for the picture quality)

Hi Balaji,
I have the preserved specimen in my museum, right now I dont have the pic, but it will be done and sent to you.

I don't think Nangra is found in hillstreams. The habitat in question is a swift, turbid lowland river (elevation is only about 4 m asl).
I have collected three specimens of Nangra nangra (somewhere in May 2010?)from Teirei river, Mizoram. These too from moderately fast, turbid lowland river ...

HH, If possible I want it too

me too, if possible, HH

Hi HH, any chance of getting the paper??
lrl_zoo@yahoo.co.in

Hi HH, Can you please send me the full paper/article if you have.

to me it looks like Glyptothorax sp

Supposed to be Glyptothorax chhimtuipuiensis, missed one 'h'. Etymology must be the river(I guess?.) The name of the river is CHHIMTUIPUI

Thanks all, very informative. I will follow the same.

The natural habitats is formed of pebbles and those rocks/stones (collected from its natural habitat) i kept with. If aeration is good i just think they can survive well, I feed with tubifex worm (dried). I kept Acanthocobitis botia, Garra sp, Botia dario, Amblycep sp, Glypto, Devario aequpinatus ...

Pseudolaguvia virgulata in my tank, I want to see whether or not it can be kept sucessfully!

If your plan include Mizoram, prepare to climb (eh! it is a hilly area) as less chances of finding good diversity of fish where vehicles can reach. You'll be needing special permit to enter too. Even the Indians (other than Mizos) need Inner Line Permit to enter Mizoram.

not only aor even seenghala have black spot on adipose but acicularis have bigger and longer adipose (with black spot) compare to aor and seenghala.

Spent 2 nights to north eastern part of Mizoram, Based at NE Khawdungsei village which is 200 kms from my state capital, it took 8 hrs to reach. From the village the river is 20 kms which took 1 hour to reach by small vehicle. In the meantime fire create a problem during my trip. In Mizoram shifting ...
