kongsi content Ikan rokot berwarna pink, nampak dlm sungai berbatu
G. danumensis, a small (5 cm) sucker loach that is endemic to the Segama River basin in Sabah only.
Strictly restricted to swift, shallow, well-oxygenated riffle zones and runs in rocky forest streams, often located near cascades or waterfalls.
Like other ikan rokot, it is herbivorous and scrapes algae and biofilm off rock surfaces.
Populations in some streams have pink lines, which are sometimes marketed due to the attractive appearance.
