Ecotasia's video: Wild Borneo Suckers and Hillstream Loaches

@Wild Borneo Suckers and Hillstream Loaches!
Highly oxygenated rainforest creeks are the domain of the hillstream loaches, especially the genus Gastromyzon, the Borneo Suckers. As a long time aquarium enthusiast, I was ecstatic to find these fish, which always captivated me with the idea of stream tanks and their subtle beauty. To stay in place the fish have evolves a suction cup, which is sealed to a surface by a ring of micro bubbles, which is strong enough to hold a fish 1000 times heavier than the loach. [1] Sources: 1.

Welcome to Ecotasia! On this channel you can find wildlife footage and short documentaries on the natural world. I am an early career biologist who was inspired by the likes of the BBC Natural History unit, PBS, and Animal Planet as a child and then more recently by various nature YouTube channels to share my love for animals and nature. My goal is to document and highlight the interesting ecology and behavior of organisms I encounter, as well as cover and elucidate conservation and biological topics.
