Shrek has some friends living in the same block.
Let me just call them fishy neighbors. It may take a few posts to introduce all of them.
First, this little guy, Ben, has a few black stripes on the body. Its official name is Botia dario. It's in the loach family. Some people call it Queen loach, some call it Bengal loach. The latter seems to fit its appearance better because it has the stripes like a cat. However, its temperament doesn't suggests it's gentle at all, especially when it comes to feeding. It'll chase its neighbors from one end of the block to the other.
Don't worry, although Ben isn't friendly, he won't hurt others much, he's more like a "paper tiger" instead. His favorite meal? Small snails. When he sucks the snail out of the shell, it'll create some loud "clicking" noise. Interesting, isn't it?
His heritage? He's from the hill streams of Bangladesh.
