Loaches Online Forum

I was really wanting to get the Kubotais. What about 4 for that tank?

Its a juwel 125 and got just a few barbs in it right now? Will 5 kubs be ok for that size?

I was thinking of getting group of these guys but dont know which are the most activeand playful. My friend has botia striata and are very pretty but seem to hide a lot. Are Kubotai the same or are they more playful?

I have a juwel 125 (125l). I have 8 botia stiata. Can i keep 4 botia kubotai too?

I have 8 small botia striata. Can I feed them tinned tune? or is it not good for them. I fed them a little today and they seemed to like it.

My tank is 32 inches wide, 125 litre so i hope its wide wnough for the 8 loaches. I have plenty of caves, plant pot and bog wood for hiding places.

I would say the tank is too small. I have 5 in my 30 gallon tank and planning to get 3 more so I dont know if my tank is too small?

I have 5 botia striata in a juwel Rio 125 litre tank along with 6 ruby barbs. I really would like to add some Botia Kubotai as I seen some at the lfs and they look really nice and active. Would I have enough room for 3 along with my other fish. Would they get along with the botia striata?

My daughter is always asking where are the loaches? I am always saying they are sleeping:). I am thinking of trading the 5 striata for 3 Kubotai as they seem to be a lot more active??

I havemy 5 about 2 months and most are extremely shy. I was thinking of getting about more but my tank is only 125 litre?

anyone?

HI, I have a 125 litre tank with 6 red ruby barbs and 5 botia striata. I have had them for about 2 months and there is one larger one than the other and it always hides in the bog wood and hardly ever see it. I never see it eating food. The smaller ones are much more active and always feed in a grou...
