Botia modesta
SYN: None
PD: A laterally compressed fish with an arched back and flat belly profile. The caudal fin is forked and the caudal peduncle is short and wide.
I introduced a couple into my 120 cm tank that houses an Orange-finned loach and all but 1 died. Some of their shells had been damaged (they looked like someone had sand-papered a particular part of the shell very hard).
