Hi Ned

Do you know if these are Y. cuadipunctata or Y. splendida?

Thanks!

Mike

And by these i meant what you have listed as "Speckle-tailed" loach.

www.loaches.com species index should give a good comparison.

loaches.com not loading

can you email or post the pics

better yet
just come over and see them

do they look like these guys?

or different?

my fish are younger than your fish in that photo

mine have the same dark caudal area
their bodys are a lighter grey
the tail of mine are yellow not orange
the dorsal is also yellow
both the dorsal and tail fins have the the small black spots

had them about a week
they are very peaceful so far
...they are in with some Lamprologus similis shelldwellers

Cool, any info on what country they were imported from or collected from?

M. Ophir

no
sorry
got them 3rd hand so no data

hmm ok,

Im super busy these days and live in boston, so unfortunately cant get down to the store to take a look, enjoy them!

Hey Mike,
I just had a look at them - pretty sure they are caudipunctata:

Bullet silver, ill defined spot/blotch on caudal peduncle, clear to yellow/orange fins with peppering of speckles... unless there is a closer fish to the images of caudipunctata you linked to than the splendida than this is a batch of caudi's.

Hope this helps,
-Sam

That "indistinct saddle" behind the dorsal fin is visible on most of them too... I guess that clinches the ID
