:Females are plumper than males.

|tank_compatibility=:A peaceful fish that should be kept in groups in peaceful community tanks. Should not be kept in groups of less than 3 or 4.

|diet=:Will accept most foods including pellet and flake as well as live/frozen foods such as [[Foods::bloodworm]] and [[Foods::daphnia]]. May also eat small snails. Green stuff is an important part of all Loaches' diets and so they should be fed blanched vegetable diet a couple of times a week, suitable examples would be [[wikipedia:zucchini|zucchini (courgette)]], cucumber and lettuce but some like things like broccoli, sprouts or de-shelled peas.

|feeding_regime=:Feed once or twice a day. Be careful to avoid overfeeding these fish.

:A peaceful fish that should be kept in groups in peaceful community tanks. Should not be kept in groups of less than 3 or 4.

|behaviour=:A peaceful Loach that likes to be in groups, however, in a group they will develop a hierarchy and less dominant fish will need places to hide to avoid being bullied.
 
+
|identification=:This fish has a creamy base colour on its body with several irregular dark brown vertical twin-bands with blue-grey colouring in between. Not to be mistaken for ''[[Botia almorhae]], [[Botia kubotai]]'' or ''[[Botia striata]]''.
