Scientific name: Cobitis elongatoides
The sined loach is a
fish with spectacular coloring that prefers slowly-flowing or still
waters. It often buries itself completely in the substrate formed by
sedimentation, preferring areas with aquatic vegetation.
It is a predominantly
nocturnal species, which can partially breathe at the intestinal
level in the case of low oxygen concentrations in its natural
environment.
