Im not familiar with sewellia lineolata, but I've seen that labeled as hillstream loach before.
 
yeah im trying to look online and it says there are three species commonly sold as that im just trying to figure out the exact name my lfs had someone breed these and bring them in they usually dont have them so i had to get one ive wanted one for a while and they were tank bred so that always makes me feel better than wild caught specimens
 
thanks i thought thats what it was but all the pictures they have three full stripes going down their back and he only has one
 
Yes many stores call these fish hillstream loaches or borneo suckers. They are rheophilic so fast moving water is a must.
