Mixing Different Loaches
Posted: Sun Sep 25, 2011 3:42 am
Greetings! Been visiting this site for a short time for all the great information on the ever lovin' Loaches, but had a question or two if no one minds.
Recently started my 40g tank back up and it is in the cycling stages now (going the fishless cycle route), I am currently planning on going 4-5 Kuli Loaches (whenever I find them, and not the black kuli's, though they are kind of cute too) and 4 of one of the other smaller loaches (zebra or yoyo probably), really love the clown loach, but too small of a tank sadly. These would be the main fish in the tank, so was just wondering if there would be a problem in mixing them together. Possibly a small school of tetra's to provide some activity at the mid/top water area.
Too much? Not a good mix? Thanks in advance!
*EDIT* As a P.S. - would a weather loach be too big for this tank?
