Favorite fish pics

[TheWeirdFish]

So i thought of making this thread in which you can send a pic of your favorite pet fish if you want
Mine is this romanian loach. NOTE THIS: She does NOT live in a bucket. When i measured and examined her i also took this photo of her. It only stood in that bucket for about 3 minutes then put it back into its mini-pond (needs outdoor pond for cold water, she came down river from the mountains in my country then got stuck when the stream dried into puddles during summer) she is fine now ?

That's a cool-looking loach and a very nice drawing too!
Here is one of my spoiled rotten flagtail (~10 inches), and friend bushynose pleco. FT has been with me since ~2.5 inches.
Cheers!

That's a stone loach (Barbatula barbatula) they are a cool fish for unheated tanks, it will do fine in the pond it's just that you don't see them much.

Thank you for the species name. I am having a very hard time with identifying it without stressing it out especially because it wasnt a buy...
And about the fact that you dont see them a lot, youre right. I have to spend hours looking for it and sometimes makes me worry that it might have "dissolved into the water" but its just burying itself under sand
