Loaches Online Forum

wow i didn't know that. I figured all the time in transit would be stressful and result in sicker fish. Learn new stuff all the time

I'm in Ft. Worth, TX. There's a couple of fish stores near me. Wetspot is not one of them. The one i usually go to is where i got the histi's. They are usually really good, but these were real small when i got them. They were told by their supplier they were anglicus loaches so that's what they sold...

I'll start shopping around for some kubotai then. We had more tetras originally. They weren't a species i actually wanted. The wife picked them out and then has shown no interest in the tank since. I'm not planning on restocking them and when these last 3 go there won't be any more of those. We star...

Ok i just have a lot of fish and didn't want to over stock the tank. You see all the time where people overstock the tank, and then fish start getting sick and die. Trying my best to be responsible.

One day i will feed heavy on the flake food so some gets to the bottom before the rest of the tank mates get to it, the next day I will toss in a small hand full...

This does leave me with one concern though. This leaves me with only 1 angelicus loach. I don't really have room in the tank for more fish right now. I know they are supposed to be kept in groups. It seems that he gets along and plays well with the b.histrionica. Will they function adequately for a ...

I resized and re-added the images so they'd fit better.

Thanks. They were moving quite a bit and i was using a bad cell phone camera to try and catch em.

I was sold these 3 little guys as "angelicus loaches" and told that as they get older the stripes will expand and form the traditional spotted look. I'm really not so sure I'm buying that and as such I'm not sure what these little guys are. http://i58.tinypic.com/vy9ydc.jpg http://i62.tinypic.com/ji...
