Micronemacheilus cruciatus, the Vietnamese multi banded zebra loach, is a species of stone loach endemic to Vietnam. This species grows to a length of 3.4 centimetres (1.3 in) SL. M. cruciatus occurs in the relatively still and shallow stretches of rivers where there is dense aquatic vegetation and the substrate is muddy and sandy. The species seems to be quite commonly found in the aquarium trade.
