Loaches Online Forum

i wouldn't worry aoubt the tigers except at feeding times ie grabbing food before the loaches.
when loaches mature they tend to get a little more grumpy
or down right nasty

that dario is cool!!!!

modesta are far more agressive than a skunk loach.
and I think most botia are too aggressive for kuhlis.

I used to get sand in my fx5.
noisy!
I would raise the intake

very sad
i

Nice to see he has fish again!

dropped by in Sept. to find nothing but renos.

I did get a couple of large histies in the GTA though...I'd guess around 6".

I have 13 species of botia

grrr tank
robusta -- man they move!

reg tank
histies -- so up front.

but I love them all!

I have had some of my kubs tear into grass like plants and nibble at cryps which end up killing the leaf
nothing like an eos which destroy a planted tank in about 6 weeks.

forum users come and go...with the majority lurking in the shadows

I only have one that is about 7"
king of the tank
other loaches
large modesta, skunks, eos and robusta.

that is great then (thumbs up)

did they come at a reasonable price?

i once lost some sids to it. I was really sloppy doing a water change and WHAM!
lesson learned.

I always use a Qtank for one month even for plants. Why not save yourself some massive problems.
btw - I used coppersafe and it worked like a charm.

sorry to say but if that is the case i have a whole bunch of those...and cheap!

dude!

interesting
i have found that my eos HATE any loach larger than them.
not like they enjoy anyone's company but they really dislike anything larger.
we shall see how they tolerate my large and mean Syncrossus berdmorei
