Nemacheilus anguilla
Nemacheilus anguilla is a species of ray-finned fish in the genus Nemacheilus which is endemic to the Western Ghats in southern India. It occurs in streams with pebbles and with sandy substrates. It is collected for the aquarium trade but the main threat may come from pollution caused by large numbers of pilgrims which attend temples near the waters in which this species occurs.[1]

gollark: Why would cities not be needed? They seem useful for, well, having people work close together to save on commute times, I guess?
gollark: Which you also can't do.
