loaches

Hello eveyone, In my most recent film I have decided to turn the camera lense on one of the most interesting and unique freshwater fish in the hobby. The KUHLI LOACH ! These fish have some strange features and habits that make them a very entertaining addition to a community tank. They are easy...

Are there any loaches that would do fine in a 10g tank? Right now I have a male betta and 6 harlequin rasboras and would like to find someone to fill out the bottom. And to intercept, I already have 6 kuhli loaches in a 20g tank and I'm looking for something different.

I've read all over that loaches like leaves on the bottom of the tank to hide and root around in. Now, I hope I'm not being ignorant here but, are we talking about regular leaves from outside... like the ones covering my lawn right now, or are there "special" leaves for fish tanks. I'm looking...

Okay, so I'm working to get feelers out right now. Boyfriend and I both are looking to get no more than 3-4 banded/striped kuhli loaches. Preferably smaller/younger ones but we won't be too horribly picky when it comes down to it. Right now I'm trying to get the tank set up so I won't be able to...

Hi everyone, This is my first post. I'm very sad because my clown loaches are dying...my biggest loach, Strange, died this morning and I need to know if they have skinny disease or 'knifeback'. I started out with 4 loaches - two about three inches long and two less than an inch. I hadn't...

okay so i have a 55 gallon with mbuna, and its been running for along time like 2 years, and i have 2 yoyo loaches and a synodontis decorus that have been there for the same amount of time, and i was wondering if your able to mix different kinds of synodontis species with my decorus? and same...

Oh I am so excited about it I decided to make a post! I got some Black Kuhli loaches about two months or so ago, hoping but not expecting them to breed. Well they did. I hear it's nearly impossible to get them to breed in aquariums without adding in hormones and things like that, but I said if...

I recently acquired a 97 litre tank, in which I am planning to stock once set up and needed some opinions on certain fish I was thinking of introducing, as different sites say different things. It will be fairly well planted and is a long, rather than tall tank. These are some of my ideas - -4...

Hello Forum! I recently had to move my tank so i had to remove 60% of the water and replaced with new. I have a 20 gallon tank that was in pristine healthy condition for over a year, until i moved it. I replaced the water and added the appropriate amounts of chemicals and aquarium salt just...

I have 2 clown loaches and one zebra loach. All three of them like to hide behind the heater in the corner of the tank. Is that normal? Also whenever someone walks by the tank they swim back to that corner to where the heater is. Is it normal for them to get startled like that? And I noticed...
