Description

The Borneo Sucker (genus Gastromyzon) is a highly specialized freshwater hillstream loach endemic to the fast-flowing mountain streams of Borneo. Famous for their flattened, hydrodynamic bodies and fused pelvic fins that act as a suction cup, these peaceful bottom-dwellers are highly popular additions to mature, high-flow aquariums.
