what type of loach is it

[Camladd]

sadly i dont have a picture,, but i saw a loach(may have been a catfish) which was about an inch long and had the sam shape as a clown loach..... it wa a very ale pink almost white with red eyes......if you know what it is can it be kept in cold water

It may have actually been a type of cyprinid referred to as a "shark." Possibly the albino form of the rainbow shark. Did it have red fins? Also far-fetched, but it might have been an albino cory catfish. Google image for those and see if they look similar.

I can't think of any loaches with that coloration... where did you see it?

yhyh thanks its that cory catfish.. cheers mate... what are they like with water temps?

They're tropical fish. Almost no tropical community tank is complete without a few cory cats. They're great fish. ^^

Hello,

possibly u speak about Myxocyprinus asiaticus?
In english it´s called "High Fin Banded Shark"
These are cyprinids from China but act kinda like corys or loaches.
Here is a pic of mine (keep them in pond)
