Chinese Algae Eater or loach?

EmpressCat, that is not a Chinese Algae Eater. It appears to be some sort of loach. Might want to start a thread in the ID Forum.

Omg thanks, you are right the algae eater is smaller. I looked it up I think they sent me the wrong fish a panda garra all this time I thought is was an algae eater! It is an algae eater as I wanted so sorry

You’re better off with the Panda Garra. A large Chinese algae eater can terrorize an entire tank, and doesn’t consume much algae.
