Excellent video. Your loaches look great and your tank is very nicely set up.

Thanks Keith, there's plenty of places to hide/lounge in there and I have kept the front of the tank clear.

I have that kind of distress fight almost every morning here when I offer those tablet food. My 8" alpha loach always becomes gray and will kick asses of every one close to tablets. :lol:

Nice video! 8)

Cheers, those two big boys are often fighting. Although they are a close match for size one of them is twice the age of the other and his mouth is twice as big so he always wins.

Thanks for the nice comments FishyLady & Vancmann
