Re: Loach Count
Someday, I will count my loaches :roll: Anyways, I have one Histrionica loach, I have never seen them in the local fish stores.

Re: neon tetras acting wierd anyone know why ????
Neon Tetras are a shoaling fish, not a schooling fish. 5-6 is about the minimum for Neons I think. I am currently down to 5 myself (from 12). Sometimes when they mate, the male will chase the female away. It could just be that your one neon is a jerk.

Re: kuhli loaches as ground crew.
I'm fairly sure that Ropefish will eat Kuhlis. Try Googling something like Ropefish and Kuhli loaches. I'm not entirely sure, but I think my Yoyo's ate my pangio alternans

Re: What is this Golden Loach Skin Blisters Swelling
I've got 2 golden loaches and one has become very swollen and looks like he has blisters or skin bubbles on his body. I took a picture but don't see a way to post it.

looks like they sold you what they said they sold you to me. It looks just like the Emma Turner picture at the bottom of the Kubs page.

Re: Subdued Lighting for a non-planted tank...how?
If you have a hang-on filter, duckweed can get underneath the incoming water and get pushed down into the intake pipe or block the prefilter sponge. That's something to watch out for with duckweed.

Re: My loaches go absolutely bonkers for this (added Pics!)
Does it hurt when a Clown accidentally sucks your skin? My YoYo's get me sometimes, and it stings like a needleVancmann wrote:Well, they hardly even hesitate to come suck it from between my fingers. Check these Pictures.

Re: Which kind of loach?!?
You might want to put them in quarantine first. I think those are a species that often comes with parasites. As for tank mates, I don't think you can go wrong with dwarf chain loaches.

Re: How many L for 10 botia macracanthus??
I think 400L is good to start. I remember reading somewhere that a 120G (450ish L) is what they end up needing eventually. 4'x2'x2'
