Dintlha

1

Pairs of this fish are often seen with R. eschmeyeri, and it has been suggested that the two are the different sexes of one species.1

2

Its colour varies greatly. Newly introduced fish have been known to change colour when a group of a different colour is already present.1

3

It rarely swims. Instead, it moves along the bottom by propelling itself with its fins.1

4

It is a rare but highly desirable fish in the aquarium trade, and most specimens are exported to the west.1

5

It is difficult to identify in the wild, and it is extremely hard to wean captive fish onto prepared food.1
