Loaches Online Forum

Hello,

I later in the year last year had to get rid of my 75 gallon tank that I had recieved for free earlier that year.

I simply didn't have the space for it in my room.

I have to admit, my absolute favorite fish that I ever kept in that tank were my 3 weather loaches. I really want more of ...

Are some of them weather loaches? Some of them definatly had the body style, but I'm sure thats not all you can go on.

Shane,

Well,
I can happily say that I've completely rid my tank and fish of Ich. Just took time, and single half dose of "Ick Clear" by Jungle.

Thank you everybody,
Shane

Hello,

I'm very sorry to say that I think 2 of my 4 Weather Loaches may have a slight case of ich. At first I thought they picked up some debris from burrowing in the substrate, but when they went through my bubble disks, nothing of the sort flew off their bodies.

How would I treat a Weather Loach ...

Hello again,

I currently have 4 weather loaches in my 75 gallon tanks, along with 2 fancy tail goldfish and one telescope calico goldfish. How many more weather loaches could I have? I've completely fallen in love with the species of loach, and I really want one of the golden variety, but the ones ...

Hello again!

Just wanted to let you know that as of today I am the very PROUD owner of 4 Weather Loaches. I have a question about them though...my two oldest ones were marked at Petsmart as "Spotted Dojo Loaches"...but to be honest, they aren't very spotted at all...they are more metallic colored ...

That would be sOoOo cool...

Shane,

Hey Hey,

I would NOT be opposed to getting more Weather Loaches!
I was thinking of getting some of the gold ones at my LFS...

I'll still possibly get maybe 2-3 goldies though...I was thinking of Telescopes and a Black Moor...but hey, whatever I can find that looks healthy.

Shane,

Hmm...
Well, alright.

Thank you for the heads up!
I am debating on weither or not buying some goldfish today...I was thinking Ryukin, what do you think would go best with my weather loaches? Before too long I want to get one of the gold varietion as well.

Thanks again,
Shane

Well, actually now that you mention it...

My substrate is pretty much sand, and I was wondering why they were burrowing. I don't have a good lid as of yet, but thats because I haven't been able to find a good one yet. So right now, they water level is just lowered enough.

Thanks for the welcome ...

Hello,

I'm rather new to this forum, and I had a few questions about the 2 Weather loaches that I purchased today from my local PetSmart.

What are the temps that they are best kept, I understand that they are cool water fish. What other loaches can be kept in cool water aquariums? (I have a 75 ...
