  • In today's video, I make DIY fish traps out of giant bottles! I placed the traps in a new tiny creek and was surprised at all the fish I caught, platys, swordtails, plecos, crawfish, and an unknown fish that looks like a freshwater stingray, then I brought them all back to my house to keep as pets!

    Reticulated Loch Commonly called Hillstream Loch in the aquarium hobby. Originally found in tropical regions of Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia. Commonly found in shallow riffles, river rapids, and slower-moving stream pools in between. Their native habitat tends to have lots of rocks and is sparser in vegetation. They grow between 2.5" and 3". Hillstream Loches are omnivores and grazers. In the wild, they consume small aquatic crustaceans that live at the river bottom, algae, and small organisms living on underwater surfaces. They will feed on algae and biofilm in your tank. They also like to eat most kinds of live foods, such as insect larvae, tubifex, daphnia, and frozen or live brine shrimp. They will also eat fish flakes or pellets, as well as algae wafers. Hillstream Loches are a great alternative to Plecos.

    Yup, like the group says, "Hillstream Loach" - not at all a stingray. They come from cool water streams in China. I have two in my tank. They are fantastic at keeping the glass clean. Better than Ottos or anything else that I ever had on cleaning glass. They are a bit more expensive and harder to find. I checked out a half dozen LFS in my area and only found two all year. They can breed in captivity, if you can find enough. The one in the video looks full grown.

    The freshwater "stingray" is definitely a hillstream loach. They are native in China and live in high flow high oxygen streams on hillsides. In fact, most of the fish that you showed found in that area do not belong there. Someone dumped their fish tank, or it is a common dumping ground.

    No, I actually have those. They are basically freshwater singers but they’re cleaning fish to.

    That pet place is 100% dumping fish lol. That literally is the perfect environment for a hillstream loach. Bunch of ottos and swordtails
