Sad day for my loaches
I haven't been o n this forum for a long time. Because we are moving, I am selling my tank. This forced me to find new homes for my loaches. My 7 clown loaches were moved to the UNBC freshwater tank because I really didn't want them to be separated. It is a 135 gallon tank that has a few yoyo loache...

Re: Have to find a new home for my loaches
We are building a new home and will have temporary accommodation while doing so. I simply don't want to stress them to that extent, so I am hoping to find some loach enthusiast who wants to take them.Ardillakilla wrote:Can you elaborate on why you can't take them with you?

Have to find a new home for my loaches
I have been absent from the forum for a few years after using it to learn an immense amount about these wonderful fish. I have been a successful keeper of several species (clown loach, kubotai, zebra loach and kuhli loaches) largely thanks to the great advice I received from this forum. In the next ...

I had one clown that took several months to settle in. I'd be a bit concerned with the cichlids causing the clowns to stay back. My clowns eat pretty much anything. They do love zucchini, so you could try that (make sure you wash it well). I cut a piece and anchor it with a rubber band to a piece of...

Interesting kub behavior
I have one kub that likes to exhibit a sticking-like-s**t-to-a-blanket behaviors. It generally swims right next to a clown loach - size doesn't seem to intimidate it at all - or less commonly a zebra loach just behind the head, and then it's almost like it's attached. After a few seconds the 'victim...

Martin's picture files contain most of the info you would want to know about equipment and settings. You need an exif viewer. It's built into some browsers but I had to download one for use in Firefox. Right clicking on one of his shots gave me this info. The things you learn in this forum, eh! I h...

The first one (that started off 'see-through' is really neat. My kubs vary a lot, but that one is definitely different. Hopefully not a hybrid - wait for the experts to weigh in I guess. The second one looks like a typical Botia histrionica to my admittedly untrained eye (see http://www.loaches.com/...

I should also mention, my girlfriend has silvertip tetras and, if you aren't bothered about them not shoaling much, they're excellent fish. Just don't keep them with anything that might be susceptible to nipping. I had silvertips for a while, and I have never had a more aggressive tetra. The males ...
