Getting NEW Mini Stingrays! (Borneo Suckers)

[@lazarosalazar3366]

I keep three in my 125 gal.They are definitely characters. They completely changed my tank. They don't bother with any of the other tank mates, and they dont get bothered or bullied.

[@setyahartade3335]

they're really an oddball and really interesting. own a group of 4 in a 24-26 degree. at first they literally jostling around. after a couple of day they stopped and start being peaceful to each other.

[@JustinsFishRoom]

Really enjoyed this video! Really liked the closeups of the loaches - the blue on the tail is AMAZING!!!

[@pantajames]

Wow. You are really expanding your selection. Can't wait to see them

[@jldallover]

I just picked up some Borneo Suckers. I've been looking for breeding videos, with no luck. Can you give use and update? were you able to breed them? If so, how did you do it? Thanks.

[@NateK-MN]

I believe the only breeding report is that the water was really warm, close to 90F, and then water was dropped, and they dug out small pits in the gravel to lay eggs in. Keeper was unsuccessful at raising fry though. Either that or hormones... 😕 Also, keep the lights on high! They're very territorial. Females have wider abdomens. Any breeding behavior yet? And soilent green is their preferred green repashy flavor apparently 😜

[@Constantine_Cvl8]

The report can be found on the Loaches Online forum aswell as in SeriouslyFish. Fry rearing was successful on the second attempt. Similar to the reticulated hillstream loaches Sewellia lineolata, the fry simply appeared overtime and the parents seemingly did not predate on them

[@imranpatel4612]

These little guys are so awesome and cool to see. Never seen them before so can't wait to see updates and progress with them. Looks like they were establishing their pecking order in a similar way to Bristlenose chasing eachother around and barging bodies

[@flyingcrocodile4630]

I have four of these little beauties in a 1 gallon cylindrical tank with a super small filtered power head injecting a fast vertical flow of aerated water down the side of the tank. Easiest care fish ever with a 33% water change every two weeks and feeding them only on algae wafers, with no problems for over two years now.

[@uglygodkurt2577]

Love the vlogs man! Just Bought a book from your site cant wait!!

[@lennium100]

Watch at night time, Iridescent blue flag tail fights awesome. Once adjusted mine stay down the bottom.

[@GifMaker-n8r]

I have 5 of these and only ever seen all 5 of them once in January of this year. Nowadays I only ever see 2 or 3 at max every few weeks they are extremely good at hiding

[@tribalrhino]

I bought some hillstream loaches cuz they looked cool and weird... the experts said they would never breed, not enough flow, not enough boulders.... well I guess they didn't get the memo. Good job. Oh, you will want to be putting a pop sock over that matten filter pipe outlet though, they will go investigate that at some point. when you watch them, set an alarm... hours can accidentally fly by :)

[@christophergarwood]

Have been watching your channel for a few weeks now, love your content, and your approach to breeding. Keep it up mate. Love from Wales

[@Jacksprat265]

I just got mine this week... they have such personality! I was told by my local fish shop that true hill stream loaches aren’t available for import...

[@adammalliu4634]

I thinks so as I bought "hill stream loaches" but they look exactly like these little guys so not sure

[@GifMaker-n8r]

I have 5 of these guys with my 2 fantails in a 70 gallon. At first they were completely shy and would avoid any interaction but overtime they are now out and about and generally don't care about the fantails lol.

[@katpocketmonster3281]

omg you're actually local to me! I reconize that Aquarium, my favorite one to visit! Right now they have beautiful Alien Bettas for $20ea! You should have a go at breeding them ^^

[@valiaudet3415]

Borneo loach are so funny. I can watch for ages as they play hide and seek around rocks.

[@ravenravero8059]

These are so cool! Glad you made a video about this and got them!!

[@davidkeuler3432]

Justin...cracked at keeping fish my guy uhhhhh

[@emmanuelV37]

Love the different fishes as well! So interesting! Also love the Monsters Inc mold haha!!

[@ryanaka9336]

any update about borneo sucker now ?

[@CaylorsReptilesAquatics]

Technically they don’t climb out. They rush up the tank sides and if it’s rimless, there’s nothing to stop them popping out of the tank. Was that a blood worm or black worm in the bucket? Always a pleasure

[@valiaudet3415]

Borneo loaches are so cute.

[@calebwatson3023]

It took a few minutes, but I seen the blue in the tail. They look awesome!

[@warpstargames3925]

Oh I love these guys, have you had any luck breeding so far?

[@allonekingdom]

Matey you rock with your video topics and thourough details

[@danksnowbird]

nice nice, keep up the great work dude! , i got a group of chinese hillstream loach (pseudogastromyzon cheni) very stunning patterns tiger stripes mixed with dots on them with a red strip on the dorsal fin, can watch them for hours

[@grahamfishkeeper6397]

Loving the zoo York tee shirt 👌🏻❤️

[@seedlesspumpkin3654]

First, was hoping you would put up a new video, these fish look so cool, they look like fatter hillstream loaches

[@KeepingFishSimple]

Glad you like them!

[@brianmarshall1762]

Good luck with these guys. I had 6 and all but one found the tiniest gaps in my lids, so watch out.

[@KeepingFishSimple]

damn

[@aquamate]

Nice addition good luck breeding them, I think H.C Aqua has had success breeding these guys Incase you need advice.

[@kellyroach76]

Hi Nick! Did you ever have success breeding the Borneos? Thanks!

[@justinecharles2645]

Once I had one but the gap at the top of the tank was too big and it climbed up and dried out

[@KeepingFishSimple]

sad

[@petpot1962]

Thanks for the great video. They remind me a little of dodgem cars on the rocks

[@beaka63]

Love these fish. At least you know what they are. MD didn't, and decided to just call them Hillstreams, even after told otherwise, hahaha!

[@FishRfun]

I ordered a spotted one but it came doa, so I picked up a reticulated one at lfs. I like the tiger one a lot too

[@KuyaFincher]

Do you have any update? Have you bred them now?

[@kierynkelly7374]

Keen to see how your breeding project goes mate :) Just a heads up from my experience of keeping them, 24degrees is around max temp you want. I lost all of mine in a tank at 27degrees before I did more research :( Ideally 23.8 is their best temp :) Hope it helps, keen to see more vids man :) keep it up

[@Robby454]

Hey. I am getting a butterfly telescope goldfish in about a week. My tank has been cycling for about 4 weeks now. It still has cloudy water and I don’t know what to do. It is a 20 gallon long with a filter and an air stone that is a good flow for the goldfish. Thanks

[@acutebluesmurf1]

Update on breeding please!

[@T.J-and-Soul]

Finally I find out which type I have. Mine is the same 😎

[@braddboyce6648]

A Borneo Sucker is a HIlstream Loach but not all Hillstream Loaches are Borneo Suckers....

They are different spesies and genus tho

[@jonathandiazlapham2252]

I’m watching you Justin

[@17an73]

At my hometown, you just need the net and catch them at the river... i'm indonesian

[@ernipta5202]

True, i hope i can go to south borneo to catch these cute fish, it is so expensive in my region😢

[@cookingwithgraceandkyle1136]

Ok ik this is not related but if anyone can help me I have one Cory Dora out of five and he keeps blowing bubbles and I read online bubbles could lack oxygen but I have an air pump and it some people say it could be ammonia. Also they sed it was normal but he is the only one doing. I’m very worried about him.

[@angiebear8727]

Have ones with blue on the tail. They are so pretty and fun to watch. Trying to figure out different types. Like are they all super small? Are stripes vs spots the only difference or are there differences in their temperaments? Overall really fun and different. When people visit they always ask me what they are❤

[@Wedcreature]

Aye really nice looking fish!

[@KeepingFishSimple]

I think so too!

[@FishRfun]

Watch out for outdated info on these. I have mine in a 55g denison barb tank with angelfish. They don't need fast moving water and mine are thriving at 80 degrees Fahrenheit. These are one of those fishes that don't really need their natural environment to be happy. Smooth stones to graze on is a must though

[@mohamaddelband9033]

Can you breed boerno loach with hilstream loach?

[@alanpitkeathly3055]

Make some more repashy and put it on the rocks in the tank. That’s how I’ve done it

[@caewalker9276]

Have you seen the Saddle back loach. Their pattern is beautiful. Thanks

Not necessarily. They just live in those environments. Typically they try to stay in the lower flow if possible.
