Yellow Finned Hillstream Loach

To protect our animals and to ensure they get to our customers healthy, we will only ship orders with Nano Fish via UPS Next Day Air.

The Yellow Finned Hillstream Loach (Gastromyzon viriosus) is a fairly newly discovered fish. What makes this fish extremely unique is its yellow fins, which makes it standout on dark substrates and backgrounds. This fish is not commonly sold and we're extremely happy to be able to offer this rare fish to our customers. This species is known for its ability to thrive in fast-moving streams and provides a natural algae control in aquariums. Some of these fish are Juveniles and may not have its adult colors yet, the colors will become more prominent as they get older.

The Yellow finned Hillstream Loach, like other Hillstream Loaches are pretty easy to care as long as they are introduced to a mature, cycled tank. They can acclimate to a wide range of parameters.  The following are our water parameters we keep them at:
